Tips for Winter Park coffee shops

Park Avenue cafes are busiest on Saturday mornings during the farmers market, so go early if you want a table. Austin's is the best bet for an evening coffee, since it doubles as a venue. If you are planning a party or wedding, Kineo brings the espresso bar to you, and New General caters with three days' notice. When choosing, think about what you need besides coffee: Austin's for entertainment and a late night, New General for a clean-eating breakfast, Barnie's for beans and gifts, and Foxtail for speed.
