Vernick Coffee Bar

Vernick Coffee Bar in the Comcast Tech Center is one of the coolest places to grab a croissant and coffee in the city. The space is surrounded by massive indoor trees, along with a white dome that looks like a spaceship ride at Universal Studios—looking up at a ceiling with glowing words streaming across it is great for productivity after all. There is tons of open space, and  you can choose from a menu of caffè umbria coffee (which you can surprisingly get a large for under $5). They also have in-house baked goods like strawberry and passion fruit kouign amann, grain bowls, sandwiches, and light options like their chilled soba and sesame that’s topped with cilantro and has a citrusy sauce on it. Unlike most coffee shops, they take reservations here so you can calmly come in with your laptop and bag without having to plot on a working space while you’re in line.
