St. Coffee

A neighborhood coffee shop on Saint Claude Avenue, an unfussy local anchor on a Bywater corridor that rewards wandering. Come in the morning, order an espresso drink, ask what is good, and then set off down Saint Claude on foot — the stretch is the point as much as the coffee. There is no standalone website; they live on Facebook as @stcoffeestclaude, which tells you everything about the scale and spirit of the place. It is exactly the kind of small, real corner shop that makes a neighborhood feel lived-in.
