Just Say No to McCafé
By now I’m sure you’ve been bombarded with the ad campaign for “premium coffee” that has appeared at McDonalds at just-below-Starbucks prices. In order to help resist going to see the magic machines that formulate these brews (it’s a one button push type of thing) and the coffee that was probably bought at the lowest price possible, I formulated this list as a reminder of the quality coffee in Nashville.
Here are 10 reasons (in no particular order) to avoid the McCafé coffees:
1. Fido
2. Bongo Java
3. Crema
4. Café Coco
5. Provence
6. Frothy Monkey
7. Edgehill Coffee House
8. City Limits
9. Portland Brew
10. Noshville (OK, actually sit and have some great breakfast here too!)

Exactly! Well said. Also Bongo East, and Sam $ Zoe are mmm mmmm good too! Marche sells Drew’s coffee, mmm mmm good too. There is no need for McCoffee for sure.

fortunately for McDonald’s, it is more respectable to move from lower-end products to something more moderate (McCafe), as opposed to Starbucks, who is moving from high end to moderate/lower-end
