What people say, in short
Kumquat's recommendations span Downtown and Highland Park; the Downtown outlet is repeatedly named in local coffee discussions. One person calls it a particularly strong choice for serious coffee drinkers. Working suitability is disputed: a visitor would not choose it for laptop time, while another describes spending an hour working at the bar. Two people also recommend Highland Park, without implying identical facilities at both shops.
