Since moving out West from Austin, TX...which is home to some damn fine coffee purveyors...I've been looking for the perfect combo of ambiance, yummy coffee, great staff (not overly cheerful, not overly angsty) and comfort.  Sola, doesn't meet all my specs, but comes on close.  \n\nThe ambiance is great.  It's industrial in nature.  While it is located in a pretty touristy area, it still has the hole in the wall feel.  I'm not sure if they rotate their art installments.  I hope so because the current pieces are on par with my 9th grade notebook doodles.  Not sure what the kids behind the counter were spinning off the MacBook, but it was good...current, hip, indie, mellow, easy to Yelp to!\n\nI ordered a non fat latte which I thoroughly enjoyed.  It was better than the Bucks or the Bean.  The rest of the menu looked good.  If I had been to the gym this morning I may have tried something a little sweeter or one of the treats from under the glass domes on the counter.\n\nThe guys behind the counter were great.  They were friendly and funny, but not over the top cheerful which can be annoying in the morning.  They are both really attentive to the customers and take care of business while having fun at the same time!  I can tell these guys enjoy their job and working with each other.  Ive been pretty amused listening to them talk about music.  If I were 17 again, I would probably want to work here with kids like these.  They have good attitudes that transcend the over all feel of the venue.  (it's funny that they have no idea I'm writing about them right now!)\n\nAs for comfort....total bust!!!!  F-.  This place is all hard surface.  Forget sinking in with a good book or an hour of surfing the inter web.  There are two couches but they aren't comfy at all...probably worse than the upright chairs at the tables.  I've been more comfortable waiting for my car at Jiffy Lube.  \n\nWill I come back?  Yeah....probably.  I'll check out some other places first though.
