Readers' Choice 2012: What’s the Coziest Coffee Shop in the Area?

If you’ve met any of our editors, you probably know the Patch team spends a lot of time in coffee shops from around the area.

There is nothing like writing on a comfy chair to the tune of soft jazz while sipping on a espresso.

All coffee shops are unique, with their own perks and idiosyncrasies. Some display art galleries on their walls while others have live music. 

What we need from you, our readers, is to tell us which of all the coffee shops in the St. Louis metropolitan area is the coziest, and nominate it for our 2012 Readers’ Choice awards.

All you have to do is write your place of choice in the comments section of this story. Nominate a place, and don't forget to tell us why!

Nominations can be made from today until July 9. Voting will begin thereafter. Make sure to tell all your friends and family to participate.
