You may have a favorite Joe, but who says you can’t be unfaithful?

Order a tall one at The Pearl Cup Espresso Bar.

The North Henderson Avenue java hut serves tea and coffee standards (the Pearl latte is a-maz-ing) and small bites like cheese, olives, and panini.

The locale is all about the locals — and we’re not just talking about the hipsters bellying up to the long metal and wood bar. The beans are roasted by a Dallasite; the pastries and sweets (mmm, polenta cookies) are made nearby. The artwork is done by neighborhood painters, and up-and-coming musicians play live Friday nights.

Soybean insulation and a wind-powered heating and air system add a shot of green to the surroundings.

And you thought your Joe was cool.

The Pearl Cup Espresso Bar, 1900 North Henderson Avenue, suite b (214-240-0667 or thepearlcup.com).
