I hope my neighborhood has reached peak coffee micro roasting

Last week I needed to get a couple cups of ordinary black coffee for my grandma to go with her birthday cookies. (She just turned 99 and is still a coffee addict). I was surprised when I went into a local Starbucks (which, happily, had no line) and found that they did not have any brewed coffee prepared. I had to wait about 10 minutes for them to brew some. So yeah, getting plain old “coffee” at a coffee shop is apparently a specialty order now.
