67 Main St.,3,Appalachian Bean,North Adams,MA,A great (and big) place in downtown North Adams. Good coffee (not organic) and a full menu of

daytime grub. Cheap, too. Living room scene in the back, hardwood floors, and friendly folks behind the counter add a lot of charm. (off Rt.

2),413.663.7543,01247

13 Rockingham St.,2,Cafe,Bellows Falls,VT,Tiny one-room joint in downtown Bellows Falls. (Between exits 5 & 6, off I-91, Rt. 5) Bellows Falls

is pretty small itself, so we should be grateful there's any coffee there at all. This isn't really a coffee house. They sell pastries, wine,

bread and cheese among other things. But, they do have coffee (1 thermos regular, 1 decaf) and it's good bean from Mocha Joe's in

Brattleboro. Whew...,802.463.1336,05101

4150 Piedmont Ave,3.5,Gaylord's Cafe Espresso,Oakland,CA,Excellent organic coffee and espresso drinks (white chocolate mocha's, in

particular) topped off with those crazy leaf designs; a friendly sunny vibe, hardwood floors, and brick wall chic that far surpasses the

stumpy Starbucks down the block. 510.658.2877,94611

7320 Greenwood Ave. N.,4,Herkimer's Coffee,Seattle,WA,Named after Herkimer, NY, this is one of the best coffee discoveries in Seattle. It's

near Ballard in the Phinney Ridge 'hood. Excellent locally brewed beans, wi-fi for laptops, sunny vibe, and every drink decorated with that

flick of the wrist flair that makes Seattle rock.

146 The Commons,4,Juna's Cafe,Ithaca,NY,Juna's Cafe is right on the commons in beautiful Ithaca. They have an excellent and varied vegetarian

menu in addition to a selection of coffee and espresso drinks. Some coffees are organic (always a plus) and there are soy milk options for

the soy-inclined. Juna's is also an independent woman-owned establishment... www.junascafe.com,607.256.4292,14850

82 Main St.,3.5,Mocha Joe's,Brattleboro,VT,They roast their own beans at the mighty Mocha Joe's. They also supply beans to many co-ops and

coffee houses throughout the state. In house, they have a great selection of coffee (including organic options) brewed daily and available

for purchase. You can also mail-order beans from their website. The cafe sitting area is kinda junky, but the general vibe is mellow and the

peeps are friendly... (exit 1 and 2 off I-91) www.mochajoes.com ,802.257.JOES,

984 Farmington Av.,3,Peter B's Espresso,West Hartford,CT,Peter B's is a great stop off of I-84, exit 41 northbound or 43 southbound, to be

exact. Special shout out to Kristi, who happens to be one of the best baristas around...

3244 SE Belmont,4,Pied Cow Coffeehouse,Portland,OR,The Pied Cow rocks. Period. They have great mocha's and the best vibe around.. It's a

house morphed into a coffeehouse/hang spot... Espresso drinks were once made with Torrefazione coffees (until it sold out) and now with Illy.

The Cow also has an impressive menu, including wine, brie, and hookahs; they also boast a very chill outdoor seating situation... The saddest

part is that they don't open until 4pm. ,503.230.4866,97214
