From drip to decaf, our Coffee Bar is serving sustainability with a smile. Check out the different blends and methods available to kick start your stay at the Emily Hotel:

Pour Over Method, La Palestina Blend: The pour-over technique is a beloved method among coffee aficionados for its ability to extract the full spectrum of flavors from coffee beans.
