Coffee Shop Hunter
Throughout my travels, I’ve spent countless cumulative hours researching and seeking out great coffee all around the world. Working in coffee shops since I was 16 and going to an astonishing number of coffee shops throughout the years has admittedly turned me into a bit of a coffee snob. On a morning stroll desperately searching for good coffee in Rome, I decided to compile all the good coffee shops I’ve found into a series of blog posts to hopefully save you the trouble next time you’re looking for specialty coffee around the world. Every coffee shop I include in these posts is one that I have personally been to and would happily go back to time and time again. My go to order is always a cappuccino with whole milk so you can count on the fact that all these coffee shops have my cappuccino stamp of approval. I understand that everyone has different taste in coffee, so if I have the opportunity to attend these coffee shops multiple times, I always try to switch up my order so I can recommend other options you may prefer. I hope that these posts can help you navigate the world of specialty coffee shops and happy sipping!
