Not being familiar with the area, I can only say try to find an actual
coffee shop. Larger chains (not naming names like Starbucks) and local
grocery coffee stands are too focused on volume to get really good
espresso. Of course you still may have to shop around. There are two
"owner/operator" coffee shops near me and one makes great espresso and
takes much pride in doing so, while the other buys stale beans from NJ
and couldn't pull a shot out of a wet paper bag. So find the little
"holes" in the wall, then find the one you like. Google might help you
get started. Good luck and good hunting!
