SIFT Bakes & Brews

You'll find yourself on a quieter stretch of Richmond where SIFT has quietly become the place locals actually go, not the Instagram-bait café down the road. The coffee's handled seriously—they're not mucking about with their beans—and the bakes aren't afterthoughts either. Walk in and you'll clock the sort of place where people camp out with laptops, but it never feels forced or trying too hard. It's got that rare thing: proper coffee shop manners without the pretension.
