La Prima

Ask a local from the Strip District where to get a fancy cup of coffee and chances are they’ll tell you to go to La Prima. The owners are Italian, and their espressos, Americanos, and so on taste like you’re at a cafe in Rome, just shy of Neapolitan in strength. La Prima sources, roasts, and brews their own beans, and also sells them online and at both of their two locations, the other near Carnegie Mellon University in Oakland.
