"Steps With Theera may look stark from the outside—white paint, black-framed windows—but it's actually quite warm inside, with gray paint and a lime-green design hand-painted on the walls. Each chair is made from a different type of wood—a visual representation of the uniqueness of each employee in the cafe's special-needs program. There's a large selection of dairy-free coffee drinks and dairy-free fruit smoothies without added sugar; there are also 12 types of conventional coffee." - Katie Lockhart
