My favorite coffee haunt

I am a frequent visitor of Cafe Vita on Pike St. The ambiance that it provides allows me full anonymity. Not only is the coffee superior, but the upstairs portion that the cafe has allows me to be able to sit in a dark corner and read my book or people-watch from a second-story view. I normally go to Stumptown in the morning for a quick wake-me-up only because it is in closer proximity to me than Vita. However, what Vita has that Stumptown does not have is the ability to sit down and not run into practically everyone that you know in your life. Stumptown, because of its closeness to Seattle University, is a favorite among people on campus and it acts as a social networking tool. When I drink my coffee, I want to be in complete relaxation without being forced to make small talk. Cafe Vita also houses a certain handsome dreadlocks barista that I come in sometimes just to oogle at. Stumptown does not employ said handsome dreadlocks barista.
