tib street has always attracted the kind of places worth going slightly out of your way for, and just between friends at number 56 fits that pattern. the specialty coffee is taken seriously here, which matters more than it sounds when you're weighing up where to spend a weekday morning. if you're working solo, this is a good call: the "good-for-solo" reputation isn't something places stumble into. the tea menu gets real attention too, which is rarer in specialty coffee spots than it should be. breakfast and dessert both feature, so you're not boxed into a single window of the day. when you're in the northern quarter and the afternoon is still open, the dessert side of the menu is a reasonable reason to stay.
