Mandarin 2

Mandarin's second room works like a record shop for roasters — Sey, Prodigal, Tanager, and Flower Child rotate through the grinders while the retail wall reaches to Terraform. Pour-overs are listed by producer and varietal, and the iced ones get a menu of their own.

• The iced pour-over menu
• Sey and Prodigal in the grinders
• A patio seat on Colorado Blvd
• Terraform bags on the retail wall

A multi-roaster bar through and through: elite names across espresso and filter, pour-overs listed by producer and varietal, and a separate iced pour-over list. Retail bags run Sey and Prodigal to Chinese roasters like Terraform.

Light wood, natural light, and a patio on Colorado — a quieter room than the original Lake Avenue stand, with the attention pushed onto the brew bar. Pastries are the whole food program; the focus lives in the cup.
