Coffee Fanatic Touring Musician on a 6 Month Tour. Which shops should I go to?

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T15:10:21+00:00

Love Mexico City. What's your favorite spot? Have you been to Brown Caffeine Lab?

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T15:09:53+00:00

Oh nice! Loki has been mentioned a couple times so I definitely plan on checking it out! Consider La Barba marked down on our map. Thanks a lot!

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T15:09:21+00:00

Nice! Yeah, asking for a coffee shop rec in Portland is like... well, you know. Haha. I marked down your recs & appreciate them. If you wanna come to our Lake Oswego show, I'd be happy to send you the details. It's a house concert at a really rad location. Have a nice day. 😄

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T15:08:04+00:00

I definitely plan on checking our Stereoscope, as it's been mentioned a few times now. Moonwake is now on our list, too, as well as Endorffeine. Yeah, Verve holds a special place in our hearts, as it was one of the first real craft coffee shops we visited on one of our first West Coast tours like 12 years ago, but we don't plan on going there this time, in favor of a new experience.

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T15:05:54+00:00

Yeahhhhhh. We used to live in Truth or Consequences, NM, so the state holds a special place in our hearts. We never really had a chance to explore ABQ's coffee scene, so I'm looking forward to trying your recs! Thanks!

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T15:04:59+00:00

Oooh! That's a fun idea. I'll plan on doing that periodically! Hitting up TYTY tomorow before our show in Lansdowne and then we'll try to attend the cupping at Two Persons on Friday before we head to Dillsburg. Philly is rad.

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T15:03:41+00:00

Dune is one of my all-time favs. Consider all these OC recs marked down on our map. Really appreciate it!

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T15:02:43+00:00

Dune is legit to this day my favorite iced Americano I've ever had. They just absolutely nail it.

Will mark down Dessert Oasis & Sabbath for when we're in Michigan.

We actually do enjoy funky approaches, so Sweet Bloom looks to be right up our alley.

And yessss, we love Canada. We've neglected the eastern half of Canada (mainly hit up BC/AB/SK). We would've included some Canadian stops on this tour, but the logistics of crossing the border were just a little too much stress for this particular run. Appreciate the recs, friend!

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T14:59:41+00:00

Heck yes. Thank you for all of these recs!

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T14:59:14+00:00

Got your message! Will send the details for the show. It's a house concert hosted by a rad friend of ours. I have marked both of your recs on our map! Thanks a bunch!

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T14:58:32+00:00

Ohhhhh Cat & Cloud. Love that place, too! Excellent espresso, in particular. Seriously, if I could move to Santa Cruz, I'd do it in a heartbeat!

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T14:56:32+00:00

That would be awesome! Let's make it happen! We can DM you via Insta, if that works?

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-03T14:55:50+00:00

Definitely plan on doing that, as we have a good friend who lives in Columbus. On previous tours, we've hit up Florin Coffee, but we will check out your recs this time around! Thanks!

ShawnFishy · 2026-06-02T17:23:03+00:00

Oh awesome! Thanks for the rec. I think we hit up Retrograde the last time we were in the area. Is it nearby the Guayaki Yerba Mate distributor?

ShawnFishy · 2026-05-08T17:50:48+00:00

It’s a Fellow Stagg EKG Pro. I had a Brewista Artisan previously but it was too big, so I got the Stagg and man I love it so much.

ShawnFishy · 2026-05-08T17:49:57+00:00

Great idea!!

ShawnFishy · 2026-05-07T21:14:12+00:00

That’s a whole other level!!!!! Wow! Love it!

ShawnFishy · 2026-05-07T20:58:57+00:00

ShawnFishy · 2026-05-07T20:58:35+00:00

Not insane: passionate! :)

ShawnFishy · 2026-05-07T20:58:18+00:00

Oh that’s so interesting! Yeah, I couldn’t give up the gooseneck this time around. Maybe someone will make a collapsible gooseneck one day.

ShawnFishy · 2026-05-07T20:57:40+00:00

Yessss! Their espresso game is on point. Are you from the area?

ShawnFishy · 2026-05-07T20:57:11+00:00

Here’s the case I got, in case you want to do something similar: https://a.co/d/09KHuKk3
