Anchors Aweigh
Okay, so we got off a bit later than expected (no surprise, if you know us), but for the first cup of the day decided to keep things Jersey local.
Our first stop was Harrisburg, PA. Figured we’d find something to eat and get a quick jolt of caffeine. Katharine cased the town on Google and found what turned out to be an amazing find: LITTLE AMPS COFFEE ROASTERS on State Street.
It’s an inviting place on a wide corner just down from the State House in a charming part of town. James, who took our order, was also the coffee roaster, offering details on the Ethiopian origins of the espresso beans. Suffice to say, my perfectly made cortado ranked with the very finest — perfectly pulled by Kate, topped with a rich milk slurry, expertly crafted. My wife’s iced cold brew was equally well done, unique and satisfying. Strains of a well-curated music library bounced off the high-ceilings. LITTLE AMPS is definitely worth the quick detour if you’re headed along the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
