Coffee

Kay P., M1

I tend to study in cafés; the list below includes some of my favorite coffee shops around town. I fell in love with Blueprint when they served their pour-overs in Erlenmeyer flasks. Northwest Coffee is my favorite place to read books and to hang out with friends. Sump is my coffee connoisseur friends’ all-time favorite coffee shop, and Rise has good food (avocado toast is my personal favorite!).

Free coffee, tea, and candy is available every day on the second floor of the med school’s library.

It’s on the Loop, near the Danforth Campus. They also have tasty pastries.

Great coffee perched between the Science Center and Yoga Six’s awesome hot yoga studio.

The FLTC location is right next to classrooms and carrels and is a popular meeting place. All locations are vegetarian friendly, and the FLTC location is fully vegetarian. The Euclid location is great for studying and has a mix of cozy/modern vibes. It’s a bit crowded during the weekend but in general, a great place to hang out with friends and get some work done!

Study-centric coffee shop on the corner of the Danforth Campus (right off a MetroLink stop), with cozy ski lodge vibes.

A bit of a walk from the CWE - Euclid, but their excellent coffee, laid-back atmosphere, and friendly baristas make it worthwhile.

A great place to study and relax with friends. Fantastic ambiance with unique, artsy, liberal decors. Great coffee and food.

Sump is a bit out of the way from the medical campus, but it’s a great excursion on the weekend.
