While such places exist, it's hard to find quality donuts with great coffee. Fortunately Seattle has a few to choose from, with one of the most colorful being a local favorite called General Porpoise.Read more ..read more

Location: Norfolk, VA WiFi?: yes Rating: 5+ [see key] There’s a few coastal cities that don’t really feel a whole lot like a typical metropolitan area, and one of those is Norfolk, Virginia.

Part of the Fill in the Coffee Map Series Subject: The Blackbird Coffeehouse Location: Port Angeles, WA WiFi?: yes Rating: 6+ [see key] For the many wonderful things I have heard of the Olympic peninsula, no words did the place justice. When I visited, I stood in awe at the natural beauty of the park and how shockingly close the town sat to the doorsteps of the National Park. Fortunately, for the brief time I spent in the port wedged between the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the Olympic mountains, I managed to find a great coffeehouse that added to the beauty.Read more ..read more

Part of the Fill in the Coffee Map Series Subject: Hey Happy Location visited: downtown Victoria, BC WiFi?: yes Rating: 6+ [see key] I have longed to visit Victoria, British Colombia for almost half of my life, and I was finally able to make a pilgrimage happen. I've been nearby in Seattle and Vancouver a dozen times, but the lack of roads to Vancouver Island paired with my east coast apprehension of ferries kept me at bay (pun intended). Finally, after cementing some intentional recreational plans, I was able to experience the beauty of this island gem one sunny weekend. Read more ..read more
