Coffee shop · Midtown

@eater

"Housed in one of the Third Ward’s first gas stations dating back to the 1920s, this teensy coffee joint only has outdoor seating. The quaint shop is complemented by a spacious patio and covered backyard, perfect for savoring an espresso or a rose matcha on ice and vegan pastry on sunny days. If you’ve worked up an appetite, try the ever-popular Janis Joplin Crepe, loaded with scrambled egg, cheddar-jack cheese, sliced avocado, and fresh green onion." - Brianna Griff, Brittany Britto Garley
