The Moon and Maybe

You'll find yourself ducking into The Moon and Maybe on one of those mornings when you actually can't be bothered with the chains, and suddenly you're a regular. It's the kind of place that gets the fundamentals right—the coffee tastes like someone actually cares about it, not like it's been sitting under a heat lamp since breakfast service started. The vibe is relaxed without feeling lazy; there's a genuine community here, whether you're settling in with a laptop or grabbing something quick before heading towards the Common. St Mary's Rd doesn't shout about its good spots, but this one deserves the word-of-mouth it's clearly getting.
