morning ritual

Every morning  M and I have  coffee at The Daily Brew.

This millennium-friendly place accurately describes itself as : 


Neighborhood coffee shop serving java, sandwiches & smoothies in quaint digs 
with a laid–back vibe.

Daily Brew looks like someone's little Cape house.

















But the parking lot that's always full, and the line that's always there, is evidence of the excellent coffee and home baked offerings.








In the past, I've avoided this place. I've always assumed it was too trendy and overrated. I was wrong on the latter . 

Inside there's an overflowing bulletin board and a kitschy atmosphere.


Cutesy signs are everywhere.



We take our coffee to the outdoor porch. There we meet a brown lab mix named Coffee. "He's a rescue dog," the proud owner tells us. "Of course he is," M whispers to me, then adds, "That was more of a statement than a comment."

It's the kind of eco-friendly, socially-conscious place where an adopted mutt is more welcome than a pure bred.

The Daily Brew has exceptional coffee. And though a glass of water isn't free, at least the absurdity of the charge is acknowledged. And, no one here is searching for Picachu.
