Most of the coffee here in Monterey is utter garbage. We have Peets. uchhh. Then Starbucks. Still echhhh. Then there is the Carmel Valley coffee roasting company,and it sucks donkey balls. There is a place downtown that is OK called plumes, but the atmosphere in there is the drizzling sh!ts. Luckily we have ACME coffee roasting company. Locally owned,he gets coffee from all over the world and roasts it in a facility nearby. It reminds me of some of the great coffee you can gvet in Frisco and Seattle and Portland. What are some of your favorites? I'll be up there next month and will need my coffee!
