Cafe Kopi

An espresso bar + away from the bustle and politics of the University Full liquor menu for supplementing your coffee with Baileys, amaretto, or Irish whisky--or just skip the coffee altogether for a glass of beer or wine, scotch or cognac. Kopi features monthly art exhibits by local artists, fresh veggie juice and smoothies, and light lunch fare. For casual hang-outs or dates, at Kopi you almost always run into a familiar face. Plus the ice water steeped with oranges is free.
