On the Grid : Mazarine Coffee

"Surrounded by Peet’s, Starbs, Philz, and Blue Bottle but looking for something quality and a little less popular? Look no further. Mazarine offers top notch coffee and bites for every occasion. From avocado toast to beet hummus and delicious pastries in between, you’ll find satisfying snacks, luxurious lunches, and an atmosphere full of fresh but subtle aesthetics; perfect for a break from your usual coffee run. Bonus tip: the waffle with lemon zest is a MUST eat. Trust us. Mazarine may go unnoticed because it is tucked into a more industrial-looking street block, and could go overlooked if you weren’t directed there on purpose. In addition to life-sparking coffee by way of pour over, drip, and an amazing matcha latte, they also make their sodas in-house. With a big open kitchen and light music in the background playing at a whisper level, there is a notable feeling of community that takes the vibe beyond a traditional transactional coffee shop environment. Packaging is compostable and there are well-informed employees everywhere to help you out, especially if you’re having trouble deciding on an order. Note: There is no Wi-Fi at this shop, so make sure you have everything you before you post up here (or a personal hotspot of your own)!" - outlier
