Kafein Makes 50 Best College Coffee Shops List

Evanston spot gets ranked by Complex magazine.

Local coffee shop squeaked onto Complex magazine's list of the country's 50 Best Coffee Shops by landing the #50 spot.

The magazine's write-up says: "This gem has been serving NU students for years, while also being clean enough to house some local Evanstonians. Be sure to read some of the Trivial Pursuit cards aloud to friends. At least they'll drown out the open mic participants."

The Daily Northwestern quotes manager Chris Waldron as saying that the distinction was, "super cool."
