Subculture Coffee

West Palm's original microroaster, opened March 2013 on the 500 block of Clematis by nightlife operator Rodney Mayo (the same Rodney Mayo who reopened this end of the street with Respectable Street in 1987) and coffee guy Sean Scott, formerly of Habatat Coffee Co. Small-batch single origins and house espresso blends roasted on-site daily, poured in a big, high-ceilinged, art-covered room that stays open late for craft beer and wine once the coffee crowd thins. Now three locations across South Florida but Clematis is the mothership and the roasting HQ.

What to order

A cappuccino or a straight cortado if you want to see what they do with their own roast; the iced Americano is the summer default. Free wi-fi and plenty of tables — a solid mid-ride laptop stop before the evening leg up to Vero.
