Formerly known as Black Tap Coffee, Second State Coffee is a sunlight-filled caffeine emporium with minimalist-chic décor, communal tables, window-bar seating, and a sleek, sophisticated atmosphere. The café is a popular gathering spot for creatives, digital nomads, and hipsters who sip innovative lattes – think lavender and brown sugar options – and out-of-this-world pour-over brews. In addition to regular coffee and tea, there are also specialty drinks, cold beers and light snacks available, which can be enjoyed for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner, daily.
