We recommend stopping by during happy hour, where you\u2019re most likely to meet the bubbly personalities that frequent Happy Willow.  <br \/>  <br \/>  <br \/>  <b>2. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/frontdoor.coffeestation\/\"target=_new\">Front Door<\/a>, Bliss<\/b><br \/>  <br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/64906-1.png\"><br \/>  <br \/>  A relatively new spot on Bliss Street that offers more than just coffee. Whether you\u2019re walking by or stepping in to grab a drink, you\u2019ll always find someone to chat up and bond with. Their baristas are some of the coolest people you\u2019ll meet!<br \/>  <br \/>  <br \/>  <b>3. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/l\/50157\"target=_new\">Riwaq<\/a>, Mar Mikhael<\/b><br \/>  <br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/64906-2.png\"><br \/>  <br \/>  This casual space is pumping with creativity, good music, and yummy breakfast dishes.
