1. Joe Bean - Rochester, New York
With its focus on eco-friendly beans and securing fair-trade coffee from reputable farms, Joe Bean is a coffee shop where customers can feel good about drinking their java. If simply sipping isn’t enough, Joe Bean offers classes on everything from milk steaming to espresso technique, making the café a unique spot to learn all things coffee.
Many may not expect Minneapolis to be a hotspot for third wave coffee. On the contrary, the City of Lakes is no espresso wasteland — and Spyhouse epitomizes the coffee culture here. Spyhouse now has three locations, including a breathtakingly beautiful roasting facility/coffee shop (featuring a restored, vintage Probat UG 22 roaster) which opened in September of 2013. If you’re not lucky enough to be able to check out the space itself, you can sign up for a subscription for their great coffee.
