Poll: Who Has Hollywood's Best Cup of Coffee?

Our inaugural Best Of Patch contest kicks off this week with coffee on our mind — it helps fuel us when it comes to running our site and we imagine it's what keeps most of you going on the busiest of days.

Whether you're meeting someone or need a change of scenery from the office, tell us, where do you go to grab the best cup of coffee in town?

Below are some of our favorites. If you don't see your spot, then go ahead and write in your candidate in the comments. (We are leaving out chains like Starbucks and Coffee Bean as we wanted to focus on locally-owned shops. But we sure do appreciate an iced soy vanilla latte from Starbucks when we're on the road!)

• Casablanca Coffee Lounge

Because this poll is not scientific, it is not the sole consideration in choosing a winner. The winner will be determined by the Patch editor, based on poll results, comments and reviews on Patch Places. Please vote only once per survey, per Patch.

The poll closes at 9 a.m. Friday, March 2. [Editor's Note: A previous version of this story stated the deadline was Friday, Feb. 24. at 6 p.m. In an effort to gather more input from the community, we are extending the contest deadline. Spread the word!]

So tell us your favorite place to grab a cup of joe and share with us why in the comments section below. In the case of a tie, the business with the most comments will take home the title.
