For a dozen years now, Ypsi's Ugly Mug has been roasting seriously tasty beans sourced directly from micro-lot farmers throughout South America. All the baristas here know exactly how to pull a decent shot with the right amount of cream, as well as do that fancy latte art stuff that everyone loves so much. Their location, a favorite of Eastern Michigan University students, is a great lunch and hangout spot, with its couches inside and ample patio space out back.
