Delicious Coffee At Stumptown
I'm a New Yorker and I love the coffee in this city. There are so many great options, many of which I can get within a few minutes with a simple walk outside. Unfortunately, there's not enough time in the day to try them all.
Very recently, I saw a new coffee maker in my neighborhood that I decided to try out. Little did I know that I would soon drink a cup of the best coffee I had ever tried.
While Stumptown Coffee Roasters was formerly a coffee maker with a presence limited to the Pacific Northwest, the a personal move by the founder to the East coast has led to a New York presence.
It seems that everything on the menu may very well be great. I've heard others say this, and the theory has proved 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.
Interestingly enough, the prices aren't much higher than those that you'd find at a Starbucks or Dunkin' Donuts. This is a great thing when you consider the difference in the quality of the beans. One negative is the fact that they only accept cash, though I don't know if that's specific to the location I've been to.
Amazingly, Stumptown Coffee Roasters almost has a cult-like following. Those who've tried it swear by the brand and refuse to drink any other kind of coffee.
Many reviewers online state that Stumptown makes the best cup of coffee out there. Some of these people happen to be from Seattle, considered by many to be the mecca of all coffee.
I can only envy those on the West coast who've been fortunate enough to have a Stumptown in their city for the last decade. As for me, I'll definitely be making the most of my new found obsession.
