ALASKA: The Crepery in Fairbanks

ARKANSAS: Nibbles Eatery in Eureka Springs
"Delightfully cozy place with delicious food. The owner was super nice even though it was crazy busy and people didn't stop coming in, he was quick to greet people and take their numbers for the waiting list while still attending to seated customers. I'd highly recommend this spot for a tasty lunch!" — Yelp user Katie P.
CALIFORNIA: BJ Cinnamon in Folsom
"If you want friendly customer service and the best donuts/cinnamon rolls, this is the place for you. The prices are fair and the quality is never sacrificed. I'll always recommend this place to anyone and everyone I know. If you haven't checked them out I'd definitely give it a shot!" — Yelp user Domenic I.
COLORADO: Crema Coffee House in Denver
"This place does coffee right! Smooth and bold. Fast service, cozy atmosphere and friendly service. Denver Central Market is great for the grab and go but I love sitting for a cup in house at their other location." — Yelp user Christa R.
CONNECTICUT: Rumors European Cafe in Danbury
"[Three] words: vanilla bean latte. Love this coffee and this cozy coffee place! Prices are comparable to Starbucks with a really unique vibe. The baristas were super accommodating and really went out of their way to make recommendations. Ciara and Suyane and they were spot on. Very sweet girls. The snacks like the gluten free cookies and the regular scones looked really good but we didn't get any. They say they are baked fresh daily." — Yelp user Anne M.
DELAWARE: Drifting Grounds in Bethany Beach
"You: at the beach with your friends SPFed to the 40s. Now it's time to go on a town safari in search of java ... look no further. Drifting Grounds is here for you. Come in, chill out, get some coffee and work on the puzzle in the corner. Or read a book. Bring a friend — or don't. The Bolero gas station right outside belies the cozy interior with aqua walls decorated in art available for purchase. Did I mention the used books for sale? Dine in and drink your tea from their collection of tea cups and coffee mugs-because let's face it-coffee tastes better in porcelain cups than paper cups, and you're helping the environment. Is there nothing you won't do to make the world a better place? Staff = lovely. Your vacation is loving you and you are loving that you came here to have a cup of coffee, you are a rock star!" — Yelp user Petunia T.

FLORIDA: Capriccio Cafe in Destin

GEORGIA: Friendship Coffee Company in Savannah
"This place certainly lived up to their name! Everybody made us feel like we were friends from a long time! Leslie greeted us and helped us place our order - and even gave us some cold brew coffee samples! The food was delicious and the coffee was superb! Ordered the breakfast bowl with both eggs AND grits. Very cozy and yummy! If we lived here this would definitely be our place to hang! Wish I stayed one more day in Savannah just so I could have another breakfast here!" — Yelp user Giselle B.
HAWAII: Heavenly Hawaiian Farms in Holualoa
"Great place to visit on the Big Island. They let you try all their coffees free of charge. There is also a free tour where they kindly show how the Kona coffee is made. There is a beautiful view where you can sip on your coffee. The coffee itself is great because it's not too acidic and doesn't have too much caffeine so you can drink it casually." — Yelp user Peter J.

"Amazing restaurant! We were passing through on a road trip and stopped by for lunch. So delicious and wonderful service. Try the coffee!" — Yelp user Marleigh H.

The WiFi and printer are reliable, the drip coffee is robust. They also have sugar free vanilla that's not too sweet." — Yelp user Kelsey M.
INDIANA: Coat Check Coffee in Indianapolis

IOWA: Cafe d'Marie in Davenport
"I want to live inside the almond bread pudding!!!!!!! Not even kidding this [is] one of the best things I've ever eaten.

The food and coffee are incredible. Homemade. Skip all chain Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts and come here." — Yelp user Mallory S.
KANSAS: Groundhouse Coffee in Gardner
"Located in a renovated, turn of the century building, just the ambiance alone is worth it, with many places to get cozy and large windows bring in plenty of natural light.

KENTUCKY: Carabello Coffee in Newport
"Such a pleasant experience! They have a very positive vibe in this little coffee shop. It has a hip, almost pop up shop atmosphere with tons of nooks and crannies that make for cozy sitting areas.

I'll have to come back to NOLA just to get another Miss Tracy's!" — Yelp user Jennifer N.

MARYLAND: Rik's Cafe in Hagerstown
"Rik's is a 'big city delight' in our sweet small Hagerstown! Rik will most probably walk around to your table to make sure you are well cared for. Cozy and unassuming with great food. Try the crab cakes, you will love them, or the Mahi Reuben! Rik's also has a nice welcoming bar area and the martinis are fab! You will return again and again, which is why reservations are a must even [on] weeknights!" — Yelp user Kathy S.

MINNESOTA: Five Watt Coffee in Minneapolis
"When I am looking to splurge on a deliciously handcrafted beverage, Five Watt is my No. 1 pick. Plus, bonus: Holy hottie hangout!

You can thank me later." — Yelp user Emily O.

NEBRASKA: Howlin' Hounds Coffee in Omaha
"Howlin' Hounds is the kind of coffee shop that makes you want to revisit a city just to go back to that one shop. The owner speaks to you as he has never met a stranger.

NEW HAMPSHIRE: The Sunrise Shack in Glen

"Vida pour Tea is a warm and inviting tea shop with a trendy and modern flare. You can choose from about 30 different loose leaf teas and grab a hot cup to go or sit and relax by a window seat with the sun shining in.

NORTH DAKOTA: Twenty Below Coffee in Fargo
"This place is stupid good. That means really good. Like really really good. The staff is ultimately wonderful. The strawberry rhubarb scone was fluffy, and dare I say moist.

OHIO: Scotty's Cafe in Columbus
"Not a terribly large store front but a big personality that you will want to visit again! Scotty comes out to meet and greet his customers, many of whom he knows by name and gives hugs to his regulars. He makes it so that you want to be one of his crowd.
