East Pole Coffee Co.

East Pole is located in Armour Yards, surrounded by industrial buildings. Head inside to the sleek, modern counter with 20-somethings discussing upcoming Atlanta events. But really, the menu isn’t why people come here—they offer standard drip coffee, cappuccinos, and lattes—it’s for the workday change of pace. By mid-morning, the tables are full of folks with headphones tapping away on laptops or chatting with friends. If the main room is full, you can head to the deck out front or to a large room adjacent to East Pole that features stadium seating you can lounge on.
