Glad i had time to check out this .coffee house in Annapolis this morning. Located in the West Annapolis about 1-2 miles from downtown Bean Rush was excellent. I had a Flat White (think latte with less foam) and it had great flavor. Wish i could have stayed a while since they had ma very nice seating area. Bean Rush is located on a street with a bunch of little houses, most of which seem to be small boutiques, artists, and other interesting things. I will definitely hit this coffee house up on tripos to Annapolis.
