I like my coffee black and unadulterated--and I love City Bean's brews. They may not make the best frufru coffee drinks, but the coffee itself is superb. Starbucks thinks that the solution to insipid coffee is to overroast it and then to load it up with sugar, dairy, and what not so that you don't notice. City Bean is the perfect antedote for that thinking. Unfortunately, it's located in Westwood.
Pros: The coffee, The coffee, The coffee
Cons: Westwood, Parking in Westwood
