Sugarhouse Coffee



Sugarhouse Coffee

Salt Lake on a Sunday night is usually a ghost town. But in a small area of the city, there is life. Sugarhouse has always been known as the “up and coming, artsy” neighborhood, and while most of the cool original shops were torn down in hopes of developing a more “general public” friendly shopping area (think Gap vs. a consignment clothing store), there is one place that survives. Sugarhouse Coffee’s back patio faces a side street, and not knowing the area, you’re more than likely to drive by, but I can tell you its worth a stop. First off, they’re open late, and offer live music inside many nights. Its one of the only places on a warm Sunday night where you can enjoy the company of many different types of people without being afraid of being kicked out at closing time. The coffee itself is awesome; they have some very innovative and different drinks, all created by the long time staff. Upstairs is a cool lounge/art space where local artist display their work. The staff is very friendly and can be seen hanging out there in their off time. All in all it’s a cool place to hang out with friends, do homework, take your parents, or just people watch. I give it two thumbs up.

Sugarhouse Coffee is located on 1045 E 2100 S, Salt Lake City - (801) 486-3311
