Gallery Espresso

Savannah


SCAD students, tourists, the downtown business crowd and Savannah's artistic elite all camp out in the cozy wingback chairs of this bohemian corner cafe, where – as the name suggests – the walls are adorned with rotating artists' exhibitions. In addition to coffee and espresso drinks, there's a wide selection of teas and libations, plus sandwiches, salads and light bites.
