Okay, I’ll let you in on something. Ask for the “Honey Badger”—it’s not on the menu, but the baristas know it. It’s a dirty chai with oat milk and a shot of honey syrup. It tastes like a warm hug from a grizzly. I have no idea why it’s called that, but it’s the best-kept secret in Lincoln. I’m probably breaking some coffee code by telling you, but you seem cool.

Also, grab a bag of beans to go. They come in these beautiful brown bags with a handwritten roast date. I bought one for my mom, and she called me to say it was the best coffee she’d had since 1997. High praise from a woman who still drinks instant Folgers in a pinch.
