While Dallas is full of all kinds of opportunities for adventure, some days the best thing we can do is sit down and relax with a good book and a cup of coffee. OR we could combine the two! Next time you're in the mood for a good cup of coffee and an adventure, check these out these must-try coffee shops in Dallas.

1. Local Press + Brew

Known for being the first coffee and juice shop in Dallas, LPB prides itself on being devoted to quality products and local support by featuring local artists, music & treats.

Location: 1601 N. Beckley Ave.

What To Order: Chai Nut Milk and cinnamon sugar toast.

Originally from Austin, Houndstooth now has two locations in the Dallas area. Their motto, "The Pattern of Coffee and People," is based on their goal of making the coffee shop very community-based.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
