Day 4: Drip Coffee from Lettieri

I'd seen Lettieri around town, and it always seemed like a very cultured and high quality coffee place. I was given a cup to serve myself from the carafes in the corner. I chose the Mocha Java (dark roast) because my usual strategy is to choose the carafe with the most liquid in it (usually that is the freshest since it presumably sat there the least amount of time, although it is possible that it's also just the least popular also).

Boring was the name of the game.The flavour of this coffee was slightly more bitter than Tim Horton's, and less so than Starbucks. I do realize this leaves an enormous range, as the two do exist on opposite ends of the spectrum, but it was closer to the Starbucks side. The atmosphere was nice though, with exposed brick wall. The price was $1.58 (incl. tax) for a small, which was about the size of a medium at Tim Horton's or a tall at Starbucks. So nothing special. Would I go back for this particular drink? Sure, since the price was somewhere between Tim Horton's and Starbucks, it was decent value and a good caffeine hit. Although I think that the espressos are the major hit, moreso than drip coffee.
