Very social coffee shop serving breakfast and lunch, conveniently located a one minute walk away from the apartment. If you're a coffee purist, go to the Orange Couch a block away in the other direction, but that's a laptoppy get-work-done vibe and that's not what you came to town for! The Who Dat is super-friendly and has great outdoor seating.
