I’ll be honest. It wasn’t that long ago that I loved my coffee with at least 10 sugars and oodles of cream in it. Not only did I love it that way, but it was the only way I would drink it. Gradually over the past few years I have fully transitioned into what some may call a “coffee snob”, though I would just say I’m very particular and have good taste. As I’ve neared the end of this transition, it has been my delight to discover, and share on Google Maps, coffee shops which meet my high standards of quality, taste and texture for a decadent latte (or other coffee-based beverage). This has truly become an adventure as I keep an eye out for new coffee shops popping up around town, in hopes that they will fulfill my needy palette. I take great joy in visiting these shops and discovering what wonders they contain!
Obviously some coffee shops are not up to my standards, which generally means I shan’t be returning and certainly won’t put it on my elite “Pretentious Coffee Shops” list. Some are decent, but are still not up to par, so I give them decent reviews and move on. Some give you the stars, the moon and more - these few make the list, which is my pride and joy to share on Google Maps in hopes that other coffee, dare I say connoisseurs, will discover my list and have a much easier time finding coffee which ignites their senses.
Reviewing and listing these coffee shops is one of the things I relish doing on Google Maps, and don’t even get me started on Breakfast spots!
