EPOCH COFFEE BAR

Unlike other generic coffeehouses, Epoch has an art vibe with its mismatched couches and brightly colored chairs and tables. There's also a DJ booth, a magazine and CD corner (you can buy and listen to the CDs), and an exhibition space for upcoming art. Epoch regularly features exhibits by local artists and they are probably the only coffee shop in the world with their own in-house DJ.

Epoch is a great place to grab your daily doses of caffeine particularly if you work near Pacific Place 3 or have been shopping in the nearby area. They also have inexpensive paninis, quick lunch items and desserts.
