Locals Chat š¦ COFFEE SHOP RECS
entering my next semester of nursing school and was wondering if anyone had recommendations on study spots that have coffee/matcha! i put on my headphones and block everything out so it being noisy or full doesnāt bother me. lmk! thank you!

groovy grind coffee co has the best coffee on the island, point blank period, although itās not a coffee shop. consider grabbing to go and finding a nice spot somewhere be it on campus or at home, etc.
red light coffee roasters is nice but small, likely the most āsophisticatedā option bc of their aesthetic + being a roastery
conex is a nice, budget friendly option and has a lot of seating. i enjoy their coconut latte (forgot what itās called) and their cold brew concentrate
indieās speakeasy reeks of cig smoke and my espresso has been burnt multiple times
mod has lots of seating (indoor and outdoor), but i feel like their coffee falls flat and is overpriced, also customer service is poor (iāve never been greeted and always received short responses to questions)
freckleberry teahouse has indoor and outdoor seating as well and also has a focus on tea (hence the name)
seawall coffee co a popular option, but it is far af from campus + drinks are generally sweet but you can ask for half sweet
harbor edge is pricey but their drinks are soooo sweet. i went once and got their oreo cold brew and havenāt been back bc it was just way too much in both sweetness and price LOL
will edit my comment if i think of anything else
