    One of the best coffeeshops in town. It is bad for studying though, since it is pretty loud in here. Best for chatting and playing board games.

    Brothers K. Had the large Americano. Made quickly and very well. Also had the burrito (black beans, et al) which was very good. Highly recommend this place.

    Best place in town. Metropolis coffee. The early bird gets the seat! Get in here before 9 for sure. It's a haven for work-at-homers.

    Sit by the window and watch for the GoldenDoodles. Pastries are to die for and the people are great. Coffee is more than awesome!

    Perhaps I'm biased, but BK sells/brews Metropolis coffee. The only coffee shop in Evanston I ever go to. Owners are great. Staff is wonderful.
