"Agora, which meets "a gathering place," is a two-story Greek coffee house and bar that opened in 2001 in Montrose in hopes of drawing in anyone—and everyone—to sit and chat over coffee. You'll find lattes, cappuccinos, and mochas; cold brew; a granita, or espresso with chocolate syrup topped with whipped cream; and the must-try Freddo Cappuccino, a classic Greek drink featuring two shots of espresso shaken over ice with a bit of sugar, then topped with frothy whipped skim milk. If that's not enough to perk you up, there's also a solid selection of beer and wine." - Marcy de Luna
