Fireroast is another good local coffee shop. It's tucked into the Longfellow neighborhood in an old corner store. They have good food prepared in the kitchen along with snacks and desserts. It's a bit on the small side and sometimes busy. Counters along the windows are always open and a delightful, albeit outlet-free, patio for the summer. It's not far from The Riverview Theater and a good place to catch a meal before, or after, a show.
