Nice place with cozy atmosphere. We love their cortado! A classic Americano was also good. They have plenty of outdoor seating space, as well.

This is a great little place to come. Free WIFI, and no one bugs you if you stay for hours ;-) I really like the seats outside. Again, you can be there for hours, and no one bugs you to leave.

I'm a fan of strong coffee, and Peet's is the place for that kind of brew. This shop at the south end of Lake Avenue has both indoor and patio seating that are often crowded with people from nearby Caltech.
