Function Coffee Labs

A marriage of coffee and science, Function Coffee Labs owner Ross Nickerson is a former mechanical engineer who built his business on getting the science of his coffee just right. (Hence the “labs.”) Try his signature “Coffee Shot," which will fascinate your tastebuds with a curiously fruit-forward flavor that's unlike any espresso shot you've had before. Pair that with a stroop waffle and let the good vibes roll. Just don’t plan to stick around: Seating is minimal. If it’s warm outside, take your coffee to-go to the pint-sized park just across the street.
