Do you miss the way coffee shops were back when the craze first took hold in the 1990s, before the chain shops made every coffee drink into a 1,000-calorie frappe milkshake and all the crazy fancy coffee snobs made everything so freaking confusing? DoveTail has great first-wave style coffee: espresso-based drinks, plus baked goods that last more than three bites. They also host regular open mics; the dream of the '90s is alive, at DoveTail.
