Sonnet Coffee

you're on west gore street, where orlando's industrial edges meet the kind of neighborhoods that shift between warehouses and artists' studios. sonnet coffee sits in this in-between space, drawing people who know the difference between coffee that's roasted for flavor and coffee that's roasted for shelf life. the regulars here aren't just loyal, they're protective of what they've found. you'll notice how conversations flow differently when everyone's drinking something they actually want to be drinking. the roasting happens on-site, which means the beans you're getting were probably transformed from green to brown sometime this week. maybe yesterday. the space feels lived-in rather than designed, like someone opened a coffee shop because they had strong opinions about coffee, not because they read a business plan about millennials and third places. come early on weekdays when the light hits just right and the first batch is cooling.
