"At Studio 24, days begin with intense sugar crashes. The coffee shop’s iced matcha latte is filled to the brim with a sweet cream and topped with a matcha-dusted ladyfinger. It makes a great dessert, but an aggressive caffeinated beverage choice at 8am. Same goes for the Kyoto night latte with a lovely sesame flavor, but it’s so sweet you'll forget you’re drinking coffee. Inside, they have lots of tables where you can hang out and pretend to get work done. We say “pretend” because it might be a little hard to focus with the DJ spinning vinyl across from you, and muscly people speedwalking to the gym that’s inside this building. And if this sounds very Edgewater to you, that’s because it is." - Mariana Trabanino
