(Y-10) Caffeine Pilgrimage, Café Único

This is way overdue.

As you can see by my entries I’m a bit addicted to coffee.

So, I have a self-appointed quest to visit the various coffee houses that are popping all around town.

The rules of engagement are quite simple: 1) Try all the local flavors, 2) Try to avoid the big chains (with a few exceptions, but that is a post for later) and finally 3) Try at least two different coffee drinks.

With that in mind, I went scouting for my first place to sit down, enjoy some great coffee and take this time to catch-up with some of my reading.

The first place, and honestly one of my go-to places, is Café Único.

This particular visit was on a rare rainy day in my fair city, so I desperately needed to chase away the chill of a winter wet day.

The place was comfy and with a great feeling of warmth, with a few people enjoyed a good chat but not overcrowded.

The coffee was perfect, strong, bold and to the perfect temperature and accompanied by a warm apple strudel, well, it was the perfect combination to warm up and read for a couple of hours.

The baristas are really friendly and attentive but do not snotter you.

This is one of the main reasons I keep coming back, great coffee and a peaceful place to unwind for a couple of hours.

You can follow Café Único on Facebook to see their location and business hours.
