Gimme Coffee Javanaut Steams Ahead

Last week, Ithaca Blog reported on a Food and Wine magazine article that cited Gimme Coffee as one of the top ten coffee bars in the United States.

There is more recognition for Gimme today, in a New York Times article called "Espresso's New Wave Hits Town."

The Times talks about Gimme's outpost in Brooklyn, and three other coffee bars in the city, that have brought the city forth from the dark ages - not so long ago - when "coffee regular, no sugar" was considered a nuanced order.

Check the Times online, and you can also see a 3-minute video that includes scenes from the Gimme in Williamsburg.
