Wired Puppy

Less than a year old, Wired Puppy's Newbury Street café is smartly taking cues from its sister store in Provincetown. Each cup of tea or coffee is certified organic and fair-trade, and the skilled baristas are happy to discuss the origins of your latte's beans (though if you don't care about pedigree, they're happy to just serve you). WiFi is free, and pooches are welcome on the patio. In short, the drinks are delish, the help is cheerful, and this new spot is — at press time, anyway — still sort of a secret.
