I had the opportunity to attend an event at Caffe Calabria last week. We were able to learn a little bit more about their coffee and actually got to take a tour and see where they make it. They have recently partnered with Fresh and Easy so you'll see their coffee also in those stores too.

I was kind of overwhelemed with all of the information but the gist is that they are very generous to the coffee farms all over the world where they source their beans. The owner has visited (I think) all of them. We also learned that fair trade coffee isn't always fair. I'll always always pay a little bit extra for quality coffee that's sourced in a moral (for lack of a better word) fashion. So yes, outside of Fresh and Easy if you buy coffee from Caffe Calabria directly you're going to pay a bit more, but will get what you pay for.

I had a Cafe Viennese that was like a dessert. I got it with nonfat milk even. The owner says it's the best drink on the menu. I liked that the cafe itself is spacious, well decorated and a place I'd hang out at if it was closer to my house. I found the parking a bit difficult, however.

Go here it's better than your local starbucks.

Love getting my early morning coffee fix here

I kept hearing about how great this place was, and finally got the chance to go last week. It really is a great place to hang out and do some work or even catch a sweet soccer game. Lastly i recommend you go and try their coffee its amazing, they brew it fresh every morning.

Great coffee amazing pizza. I highly recommend this spot. The cappuccinos are a little darker than I like but they are still amazing. I always love visiting Calabria even though it is a bit of a drive.
