Let’s be honest: It’s tempting to go to the big chain stores for a coffee, mainly Starbuck’s and Dunkin’ Donuts. Me, I’m a Dunkin’ guy myself. I freeze like a deer in the headlights at a Starbuck’s counter because I don’t speak their language. They look at you funny when you say, “Can I just get a coffee.”

“Sure, do you want the Venti double-triple flappy mocha latte with a cinnamon floater and a slap to the face?”

Not for me.

Local spots are where it’s at. And Cranberry Township has some great ones. Let’s dive in!
