I haunt early morning cafes since I am a lark, and know all the places that open at six. This place is called Blue Bottle Coffee but has no real sign, you are just supposed to figure out that it is this exclusive coffee company, by the ambiance. The fancy coffee makers are picturesque and the coffee is great, but so is most coffee in the area due to competition. I was reminded of Hopper's "Nighthawks" paintings since the cafe houses lonely looking people inside the glowing cube of a renovated building, against the cold morning dark. A refuge for anyone from CEO to high school student from the school across the street. Coffeehouses are so all inclusive.
