3. Campus Coffee Bean

NIce place
Found this place with the help of some locals. Coffee was well prepared by knowledgeable staff with a minimum of drama and condescension. Interesting and attractive clientele in a semi-quiet setting. Convenient to get into, prices reasonable, food quality good to excellent. Nice place to chill out after a hard day of work or class.

Great coffee house. Great coffee and food. A welcoming and friendly place to read, chat, browse the internet, have meetings, or just hang out and meet new people.

Seeking local food over franchise, we tried this place. The hummus plate was lousy (flavorless hummus, off-tasting olives--and yes I do know what Kalamata olives should taste like, carrots like tree-trunks). The chocolate coffee cake did not taste of chocolate. The coffee was cold. We gently complained; the staff were condescending and indifferent. Sad to say, we wish we'd gone to Starbucks.
