Italians take their coffee as seriously as they take pasta, cheese or wine. It's no surprise then that Shaw's Coffee is a great coffee shop. But Shaw's is more than a coffee house, it's an independent roaster.
Located in a magnificent old bank building, Shaw's has an airy and attractive atmosphere. You can even drink coffee at a table set within the original bank vault. Before you leave, consider buying a bag or two to take home. Shaw's dark roasts all of its coffees and offers varietals from Africa, the Pacifica Rim and Latin America.
Next stop: St. Ambrose Catholic Church. From Shaw's Coffee, cross Shaw Avenue and go south on Marconi Avenue for two blocks. St. Ambrose is located at 5130 Wilson Avenue.
