City Editor Sarah here. If you know me, you know there are two things I hold close to my heart — coffee + astrology. So, grab a cup and settle down to enjoy the brew of the zodiac signs as LOU coffee shops. | |

♈ Aries: Red Hot Roasters | March 21-April 19
Known as the bold + courageous leaders of the zodiac, you emulate Red Hot Roasters’ drive and passion when it comes to getting what you want. Plus, the bright colors from its logo and its drive-thru allude to the fiery personality — and always-on-the-go spirit — of this fire sign.
♉ Taurus: Gralehaus | April 20-May 20
As a luxury lover, you’ll feel right at home at Gralehaus’ beautiful + aesthetically pleasing cafe. After all, nothing screams opulence like sipping iced coffee from a bell-shaped glass with a sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sammie.
♊ Gemini: Wiltshire Pantry | May 21-June 20 Your extroverted nature suggests you tend to get along with different types of people. From coffee to lunch options, Wiltshire Pantry has something on the menu to cater to everyone. ♋ Cancer: Bean | June 21-July 22
The sentimental + emotional nature of your sign is the perfect match for Bean. Pair your classic latte with a baked good for all the homey vibes.
♌ Leo: Brew & Sip Coffee Bar | July 23-Aug. 22 Brew & Sip is a perfect fit for the warm, loving nature you possess. You are also not afraid to let your presence be known, similar to the shop’s giant mural inside its new West Broadway location.
