I live in New York, home to some of the best food in the world. The same can be said about coffee too. There are so many great makers of coffee in this city that it’s sometimes hard to keep up with them all.

It was just last week when I stumbled upon my favorite new coffee. In fact, this is the best coffee I’ve ever tried in my life. That’s a really bold statement when you consider how much coffee I actually drink.

The store has its origins in Portland, Oregon, with a few locations throughout the city and some others in Seattle. The founder of the chain moved to New York, and that’s all to our benefit, as the first of a few planned branches has opened here.

It seems that everything on the menu may very well be great. I’ve heard others say this, and the theory has proved true thus far. The coffee is higher grade than anything you’ll find at Starbucks or Dunkin’ Donuts, and it’s hard for me to go back to those after trying Stumptown’s roast.

Interestingly enough, the prices aren’t much higher than those that you’d find at a Starbucks or Dunkin’ Donuts. This is a great thing when you consider the difference in the quality of the beans. One negative is the fact that they only accept cash, though I don’t know if that’s specific to the location I’ve been to.

Amazingly, Stumptown Coffee Roasters almost has a cult-like following. Those who’ve tried it swear by the brand and refuse to drink any other kind of coffee.

Many reviewers online state that Stumptown makes the best cup of coffee out there. Some of these people happen to be from Seattle, considered by many to be the mecca of all coffee.

Make it a point to get to a Stumptown if you live in a city with a location. While there aren’t many of them, it’s worth the small trip if it requires a few extra minutes of your time.
