Comedians love the idea of making cafés sound like inhospitable drug dens filled with faux-intellectual snobs and vile snacks, but some cafés easily put that stereotype to shame. ULA CAFÉ in Jamaica Plain is one such establishment, where the atmosphere and food alone are enough reason to make the trip. Ula offers a wide variety of sandwiches, desserts, and drinks served by baristas who practically ooze charm. Plus, there’s plenty of room to have a seat and enjoy that brownie and café latte, which are surely two of the most delicious things you’ve ingested all week. Hint: go for the sweet-potato sandwich.

Remember when coffeeshops were places to converse rather than simply plug in and tune out with a laptop? Ula’s relaxed atmosphere helps maintain that “cafe as public sphere” ethos. The staff occasionally shuts down its free Wi-Fi during peak hours, ensuring that the shop isn’t constantly overrun by YouTube-surfing hipsters. The coffees are diverse and delicious—try the Café Cubano with cinnamon and brown sugar—and the sweet potato sandwich can’t be beat. 284 Amory St, Jamaica Plain (617-524-7890, ulacafe.com)
