The local Starbucks knock-off has excellent coffee and morning snacks, including croissants, plus a convivial sidewalk terrace that's a nice place to sit, drink a double shot of espresso and welcome the day. A godsend if you're staying in the northern part of the city centre and the hotel's coffee is undrinkable.
