I live in New York, home to some of the best food in the world. The same can be said about coffee too. There are so many great makers of coffee in this city that it’s sometimes hard to keep up with them all.
Not too long ago, I discovered what has quickly become my favorite source for coffee in the city. While this may sound like a bit of a stretch, I mean it when I say that this could very well be the best cup of coffee in the entire city.
The original Stumptown Coffee Roasters is based in Oregon, and there aren’t many locations to date. Still, the coffee here is treasured by its patrons and the chain’s expansion to New York is a pleasant surprise.
It seems that everything on the menu may very well be great. I’ve heard others say this, and the theory has proven true thus far. The coffee is higher grade than anything you’ll find at Starbucks or Dunkin’ Donuts, and it’s hard for me to go back to those after trying Stumptown’s roast.
You’d be surprised to know that Stumptown coffee doesn’t really cost any more than you’d pay at a major chain, which happens to be a great thing. The atmosphere, though it lacks seating in this particular location, also seems to be one entirely based around the quality of the coffee.
I’m not alone when I say that this is the best coffee I’ve ever had. The chain has won numerous awards, and those who’ve tried it seem to be just as hooked as I am.
Seattle residents are going as far as saying that Stumptown has the best coffee in their city. When a coffee chain is winning the praise of drinkers in a huge coffee city like Seattle, I think the praise speaks for itself.
I don’t know if you’ll be able to get to a Stumptown, but if you can, I’d definitely suggest trying the coffee out. You’ll probably be hooked like I am. If you can’t get to one, make it a point to stop at one if you’re traveling.
