Located opposite the Byron Court House this little hidden cafe seems to have attracted a special following.... Service is friendly and helpful and the food what you would expect of a cafe that has been around for some time.
Whilst the bean isn't my favourite (Merlo) the barista does a great job turning out a a well rounded latte. Texture and heat are...

In okc, and so over Starbucks and hotel coffee and cream.. Nothing in bean hunter for good espresso.. Tracked this place down through urban spoon and gave it a go.. It's real deal, roasted beans on site, food atmosphere, looks like everyone shops at urban outfitters. I'd say it's the only coffee shop in OKC available.

I had been warned in the...
