"Single origin coffees meet weird drink concoctions at Ghost Note Coffee on Capitol Hill. From-scratch ingredients make appearances on an ever-changing menu, like the Lush Life, with espresso, almond milk, and orange blossom honey syrup, served cold; or the Espresso Soda, with simple syrup, lime, and sparkling water. There are non-coffee mocktails, too, using tea or shrubs and syrups, and a slew of single-origin espressos with accompanying tasting notes if you’re feeling nerdy. Tea drinkers also have a great selection, and there are plenty of pastry options for snacking. If there’s a new wave of coffee coming, Ghost Note is at the forefront." - Megan Hill
