The alarm clock goes off, one eye opens and suddenly the day has started. A cup of hot coffee, cappucino or hot chocolate suddenly consumes your mind and before the day truly starts, the roadtrip for that java fix has soon begun.
Whether, you are a visitor in Jamestown, New York or simply a resident looking for that great cup of coffee, here are a few suggestions that hopefully will satisfy that caffeinated desire.
- Tim Horton's: has three locations in Falconer, Lakewood and Jamestown. The Tim Horton's shop offer's a wide range of assorted bagels, donuts and croissants, as well as a great cup of coffee for an extremely reasonable price. The average cup of coffee at Tim Horton's goes for $1.08 including tax. The staff is fast-paced and even will mix your coffee for you. Drive-thru is available as well, for those on the go. The hours are great, as they are open 24-7, with the dining room closing at ten. The only complaint I can find with this company is that the store tends to be very fast-paced and at times can leave you with a lack of proper customer service.
- Timothy's: located in downtown Jamestown is a small privately owned establishment. The shop is reasonable priced, a bit higher than Tim Horton's at around $2 a cup but has a special taste different than that of Tim Horton's trademark. The hours here are not as flexible, as they don't open til later in the day, and close at 5. If you are craving something to go with your coffee, try one of thier panini's as they are delicious.
- Starbucks: located on Fairmount Avenue in Lakewood. The coffee shop is yes, a trademark nationwide like Tim Horton's but by far possesses the best scenery for relaxing and enjoying your coffee, if not on the go. The coffee shop is hip, trendy and always friendly. The store is clean, open late and offers Wi-fi. The only downside is that you are going to be reaching further in your pocket, as coffee is over $2.00.
So, whether it is a quick cup to go or a time to sit back, relax and enjoy a cup of coffee, these locations are all wonderful choices.
