Coffee Connection

Coffee Connection is a nonprofit café and roastery on South Avenue in Rochester. It employs and supports women in recovery from addiction, trauma and incarceration. The roaster is in the back, and there are a handful of two-tops plus outdoor seats. There's bottomless coffee, solid internet and free street parking.

All beans are fair trade and organic. The Peruvian and Sumatra are good by the pound, and the chocolate truffle is a flavored option. The homemade quiche, including a crustless vegan one, is the food order. There are peanut butter cookies and an iced vanilla chocolate latte too.
