While riding our Honda Fit, Fandough (Hazelnut), across the country, from Princeton NJ to Berkeley CA, we stopped at many different coffee shops in different cities just to caffeinate ourselves with hot tea and sometimes coffee.
Here are three of those memorable coffee shops. Some are already known and some are isolated, but all three have a good tea collection and a nice ambiance to work. Keep them in mind when you pass these cities, especially if you are in the habit of working in coffee shops as I am.
Grounded Specialty Coffee
308, Main St. La Crosse, WI
Their Dark Chocolate Muffins are great. Add to it their nice owners, I guess a husband and wife and an ultra clean restroom (crucial factor for me!) They are famous for their double-shot espressos.
Trout River Coffee Bar
211 W. Front St. Downtown Missoula, MT
Everything is great in Trout River; especially it is a very good place to work. Not too cold, not too warm enough light and no loud music.
Michelangelo’s Coffee House
114 State St. Madison, WI
They make a great coffee and cappuccino. The owner is a warm and intelligent Lebanese-Mexican and obviously an admirer of Michelangelo.

Any good ones in Illinois?;)
My Dearest Jeerjeerak
I am sure there are plenty good ones in Illinois. Unfortunately I did not spend enough time there to explore. Nevertheless I will be more than happy to have your suggestions on that part. So please share your favorite restaurants or and Coffee shops with us on Tameshk In Kitchen.
Tameshk jan,
Although not directly related to your post, now that you have been in Madison I o suggest you to watch this master piece:The Bridges of Madison County (1995).
