Yes, our city is full of hole-in-the-wall, eclectic bars and tasty eateries, but let’s not forget those places you can go to just chill in the quiet. Let’s be honest: some of us are going to be in bed by 9:45 p.m. and aren’t trying to kick it like the old days. A late afternoon coffee or tea would be nicely paired with a book or two.
