"Based is the convenient downtown spot to post up in a window banquette with a pepperier-than-average BLT and your laptop. You won’t ever want to leave this chill daytime cafe, market, and flower shop. It’s easy to pop into this airy, downright dreamy space for a quick espresso or jasmine-infused iced coffee topped with honey cold foam. Weekends turn into all-out brunch with Southern-leaning dishes like chicken and waffles and BEC sandwiches. Since all good things come to an end (they close 3pm daily), make sure to snag wine, fancy candles, or a bouquet on the way out." - Lani Conway
