Sugar & Twine

Top choice in Richmond


Let's face it: contemporary coffee culture hasn't made inroads in Virginia yet. Fortunately, stylish cafes like this one are in the vanguard. We like everything about Sugar & Twine: the excellent espresso coffee, delicious pastries, tasty sandwiches (some vegan and veggie; gluten-free bread available), free wi-fi and friendly staff.
