Doshi House sits on Emancipation Avenue in the Third Ward, a short walk south of Emancipation Park, and it has become one of the neighborhood's gathering places. The building has a lived-in, rustic charm, with a garden courtyard out back that hosts the Doshi House Market, where local artists, crafters, and vendors set up tables and talk shop with anyone who stops. Inside, the coffee program rotates single origins with real specificity, lately a honey-processed Costa Rica, a Colombian Pink Bourbon, and an anaerobic El Salvador. It opens at 7:30am every day of the week and closes in the mid-afternoon, which makes it an easy first stop before the museums or a walk in the park. Come for a pour-over, stay for the people.
