Basically a map of where I bring a book and pretend I'm going to read instead of just staring at Jamaica Pond for an hour, anyway here's every spot in the neighborhood I trust with my paycheck and my paperback. These are the ones I keep going back to between PT shifts, record crates, and library sales, so good.

My JP coffee rotation — 4 items
Name	Address	City	Specialty	Seating Vibe	Good For Reading	My take
1Ula Café	284 Amory St	Jamaica Plain, Boston	House pastries and espresso drinks	Bright, airy, brewery complex charm	Yes, tucked corner tables	This is my Tuesday-after-work spot, it's bright without being loud, so good
2Monumental Market	36 South St	Jamaica Plain, Boston	Nut-free bakery and coffee	Small, mostly grab-and-go	Not really, limited seats	I come for the pastry not the seat honestly, but I've seen vinyl here too so my heart's happy anyway
3Third Cliff Bakery	3531 Washington St Suite 103	Jamaica Plain, Boston	Kimchi cheddar croissants, cold brew	Cozy, a little hipster, few tables	Short reads only, it fills up fast	The croissant alone is worth the trip, I just don't linger here, so good though
4The VU	673 Centre St	Jamaica Plain, Boston	Coffee plus Boston's only video rental counter	Quirky, laid-back, bit of a hangout	Yes, nobody rushes you	I go in for coffee and leave having browsed VHS tapes I'll never watch, anyway it's a vibe
