Lola Coffee

There’s so much to love at this popular café, but we go back for the iced coffee, strong and black and absolutely perfect-a spunky blend of coffee and espresso that keeps us going all day. One of these goes great with a Lola scone, moist inside, crunchy outside, and delicious everywhere. Prefer a hot beverage? […]
