A blush-pink micro-roastery on Broadway that roasts in the corner and looks like a date already in progress.

The date

Modus is small on purpose: a micro-roastery that roasts hyper-seasonal single origins right there in the room, so the whole place smells faintly of the good decision you're about to make. The signature blush-pink and green walls and a long communal bench do a lot of the charm work, making a plain flat white feel like an occasion. Main Street's shops and murals are a short wander away.

How to do it

Ask what single origin they're pouring, it changes with the season, and order it as espresso for one of you and filter for the other to compare. Sit at the communal bench by the window rather than taking it to go; the pink room is the whole vibe. Main Street's shops are a short stroll; budget an hour.

What to wear: casual is fine
