The brainchild of coffee expert and photographer Jeff Hargrove, Fringe Coffee mixes food, coffee and photography in an American-style coffee shop setting. Blonde wood tables, light fixtures like clouds, and carefully curated photographs decorate the small space, which seats less than 15 people. Offering breakfast, lunch, baked goods and hot drinks, Fringe is a great place for meeting friends or dining alone with a book.

The food is made with seasonal, mostly organic and locally sourced ingredients. On the list of musts are their open-face sandwiches (tartines), cinnamon buns and exceptional coffee. Expect to find a clientele of expats, locals, and creatives hard at work on their laptops. A small selection of photography books, independent magazines and eco-friendly goods are for sale in the back.

MON-FRI 9 A.M. TO 5:30 P.M.
SAT-SUN 10 A.M. TO 5:30 P.M.
