Alcove Coffee (@alcovecoffee) is a cool independent coffee bar on the shore of Lake Lucerne near Stone Mountain, GA. My niece Lauren works there, and my relatives and I all walked down there on the day after Thanksgiving for lattes. They feature Batsdorf and Bronson coffee, including the well-known Dancing Goats Blend.

Next door to Dirty Coast is the Velvet Espresso Bar (@ThrowACupcake) which offers gourmet coffee drinks and tiny little cupcakes known as “tea cakes.” On Sundays when the Saints play, the cakes are designed like little football helmets, and they feature the numbers of Saints players. It’s actually a lot of fun as well as delicious. Visit http://throwacupcake.com or friend them on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/velvet.espressobar.
