Baltimore's "alternative" spot for high-end coffee drinks and good conversation, The Daily Grind serves up plenty of chic and funky ambience with its pricey coffee drinks and luscious munchies. The hipper branch is located in charming, bustling Fells Point, and there's a suburban branch in upscale Roland Park. Pink-haired teen or soccer mom, loyal patrons go out of their way to sip their lattes in a place teeming with local color, happily eschewing the soulless mega-chain competition. rnrnSeveral different joes are brewed each day (decaf and regular, of course) and the fresh pastries are generous and delicious, though not inexpensive. There's also a selection of smoothies. Both locations support Baltimore artists by displaying their work. In good weather, the Fells Point branch has outside tables with a view of the water where you might event catch a glimpse of a tall ship.rnrn -- Melissa Nurczynski
