"Coffee culture is prevalent in every corner of the world and has been drawing coffeeholics and connoisseurs for many centuries. Be it unassuming independent businesses or multinational companies, coffee shops are a fashionable meeting place for catching up with friends, enjoying a laid-back date, or finding inspiration for a work or academic project. Many of these havens are obscure but delightful hidden gems; others have earned widespread acclaim for their premium brews and won some of the industry's most prestigious honors."
"The spots that have positively impacted local economies and communities have been duly recognized by their municipalities. Many have also earned national and international honors from U.S. Coffee Championships, the Golden Bean Awards, the Good Food Awards, or the Global Coffee Awards. The Championships, for instance, feature categories that include barista, latte art, roasters, and brewers' cup, while the Golden Bean covers entries like espresso, milk-based, and decaffeinated."
