"It doesn’t get classier than Nina’s, in the heart of St. Paul’s historic Cathedral Hill. This shop has an old soul — it’s filled with nooks and crannies to nestle into, and has soaring windows that flood the space with light. Be warned, it’s hard to leave Nina’s. Come for the espresso and stay for the paninis on the dinner menu." - Justine Jones, Alex Lodner
