Sometimes when I want a good place to read or catch up with a friend, I head to Caffe Ladro. This coffee house stresses their values with only brewing organic and fair trade coffee. These coffee houses are average sized, but good enough to host a crowd. If you want a pastry treat to go with your tea or coffee, you can find: tarts, croissants, muffins and other delicious items. My only concern with Ladro is that they are starting to spread the amount of locations around the area (and they may lose their quality like Starbucks has).
