Favorite place: Agora

Agora is a coffee shop that is located off of Westheimer that is known for its cool and unique atmoshpere.

So how did you hear about Agora?

"Well i found it through an internet search actually." (this proves that some good things can come from an internet search!)

"Me and the guys would go every Monday night to go and just chill, talk about life, and other random things."

Why do you like it so much?

"Well the patio faces the street, there is a breeze outside, there are always college students, and it is just a good place to go and relax."

"I like to get the biscotti that comes with the specialty coffee, like the caramel macchiato. But, for $2 you can get unlimited refills on regular coffee, like the house blend. There are also a couple of desserts as well."

He adds some things that you should pay attention to as well.

"The parking is not very good, Cafe Brazil is right across the street so parking is pretty tight. Also, the stairs inside the place are very steep, so be careful when you are carrying your coffee."

So it sounds like it would be a good idea to car pool with a couple friends when you head over there.

Anything else you would like to add Jibi?

"There are random books and pictures to look at; it is always interesting in there. It's just a cool place to chill, that's about it."

So if you are looking for a cool place to go and hang out and sip on some coffee, looks like your destination is Agora.
