Lots of places. Most have the proper machines. In the morning try any of the cafe's in Gustavia. I'm partial to Bar D'oubli. The only thing you won't really find is a take away sort of option.

ya dont ask for a coffee to go, or they look at you like you are nuts. They take their cafe time very seriously.

everything goes in a zip-loc bag when it goes on a plane. I threw a bottle of bloody mary mix in a suitcase on a short flight once and it exploded. It looked like someone was murdered in my suitcase

There are people who can't understand that we may like something that's not of SBH. We like Folgers half decaf and bring it with me and won't drink SBH coffee except for a Maya's to Go latte once.

Wow, the second F bomb on the forum this week. I think the "uck" might get mysteriously edited out. The last one did.

I couldn't delete only the "uck" so the entire post has been deleted. Even though this site is intended for adults only, we try to keep the language clean.

Only for those with the skills to use them. Next time I'll try putting the "f" ing post in the bat cave for you to edit at your leisure.

Another vote for D'Oubli. I start with SB blend, at the villa, but have a routine of stopping for a cafe au lait later in the morning. It's also a great spot to watch Gustavia come to life.
