Caffe Affogato

When it comes to coffee, there a lot of great coffee shops in and around Spokane. This is one of my favorite coffee shops for good quality coffee, friendly baristas, its location in a shared community space and their willingness to serve the homeless in this community. During summer, I like their coffee with ice cream. While waiting for my coffee, I look around the other businesses in this building.

This is a cool local coffee shop located in the Saranac commons. This place features a unique Italian take on coffee. It's air conditioned making it the perfect temperature for the summer. It's not very crowded so it would be a perfect place to study or complete that novel you've been working on for two years. It's located on main Street with some more parking options but you'll still have to pay for parking if you plan on driving. Coffee Enthusiasts will appreciate the take on coffee with well skilled baristas. The drinks are a step above other local coffee shops in the area.

Comfortable coffee shop in the downtown core. Pleasant atmosphere, friendly service. It shares space with several other businesses making it fun to grab a cup of coffee and wander through. 5 stars for the eye-pleasing interior design. Their beautiful stone counter has a ribbon of coffee beans in the center symbolic of the Spokane River. 3 stars for the coffee, which wasn't particularly memorable.
