That's not exactly the side one imagines getting along with a venti lavender matcha latte, is it? Measles Exposure At Starbucks Outside Philadelphia/Canva Positive Measles Case In Bucks County After returning from a trip to Texas, a resident of Bucks County has tested positive for the measles. Unfortunately, any customers that came in contact with this person at a local Starbucks might have contracted it, too. There's no way to know for sure until symptoms develop. Luckily, the person who tested positive for the illness only came down with minor symptoms . Still, everybody's body responds differently, so the symptoms one person develops could be more or less severe than the next person to contract it. The Health Department in that county has been able to determine that the individual who contracted the illness traveled to quite a few places throughout Bucks County while being contagious. That's why the department felt like it was only right to make the public aware of the possibilities.

Funky Cow, Hammonton Google Maps Funky Cow, Hammonton Just a few buildings up on Belleview in Hammonton is the Funky Cow Cafe, which is quickly becoming known for their waffles. While not a 'traditional' coffeehouse, their brews get good marks. And this note: if you can't choose between the Funky Cow and Casciano, visit both, then stop at the wine bar that's between the two. :-) Ocean City Coffee Company, Ocean City Google Maps Ocean City Coffee Company, Ocean City Ocean City Coffee Company has a few locations in Ocean City, including a couple on the boardwalk. I've done this many times and highly recommend it: wake up really early (when the weather is nice), go to the boardwalk just before sunrise, get a cup of coffee from Ocean City Coffee Company, and watch the sun come up. Try it! Crusader Coffee Shop, Wildwood Crest Google Maps Crusader Coffee Shop, Wildwood Crest The Wildwoods are known for their quirky, old-school hotels and motels, and many of those inns had coffee shops or small restaurants. One of those hotels that still offers a coffee shop is the Crusader, which is on the beach block, "serving genuine Italian Coffee and a variety of delicious breakfast and lunch options!" Talk N Coffee, Deptford Google Maps Talk N' Coffee, Deptford Any place that has a 4.9 out of 5 on Google catches our eye, so Talk N' Coffee on Route 41/Hurffville Road in Deptford is on this list -- "this is one of the best kept secrets in Deptford," said one reviewer. Tuckahoe Cheesecake, Tuckahoe Google Maps Tuckahoe Cheesecake, Tuckahoe When you think of Tuckahoe, what comes to mind? Cheesecake probably isn't your first answer, but it should be. Calories be damned, you're eating good here. For over 40 years, Tuckahoe Cheesecake has been doing its thing -- and yes, they serve coffee, too.

Mama Buntzs Donut Company, Sewell Google Maps Mama Buntz's Donut Company, Sewell Within a minute or two of the hospital in Washington Township is Mama Buntz's Donut Company on Hurffville-Cross Keys Road.

Java Dog, Mannington Township Google Maps Java Dog, Mannington Township We didn't forget about Salem County. Just north of the City of Salem on Route 45 in Mannington Township is Java Dog. Here, coffee is only one of the things they serve -- they also have chicken pot pie, scones, cookies, soups, and more. Jessies, Linwood Google Maps Jessie's, Linwood Route 9 runs right through Linwood -- and that's not where Jessie's is. And that's a good thing.

Wildflower Vegan Cafe, Millville Google Maps Wildflower Vegan Cafe, Millville High Street in downtown Millville is where you'll find a quirky place called Wildflower Vegan Cafe. Sure, they have coffee. You know what else they have? Tacos. Coffee and tacos. Perhaps not at the same time, but you can't go wrong either way. Ostaras, West Cape May Google Maps Ostara's, West Cape May Another trip down the shore takes us to Ostara's on Park Blvd, which is another establishment that pulls a 4.9 out of 5.
