PROOF Coffee Roasters
200 Commons Park S, Stamford, CT
Crema's Take
“PROOF is a no-frills espresso counter where they nail the fundamentals—their cappuccinos are consistently excellent, milk-forward but never overdone, with proper espresso backbone. It's outdoor-only seating at Harbor Point, so you're trading weather protection for a genuine neighborhood feel with fountain views and a genuinely friendly crew. Skip it if you need shelter from the elements, but if you're after a solidly executed traditional cappuccino or pour-over in a casual setting, this is the most reliable espresso spot in the area.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings.

I was walking through Harbor Point and found Proof Coffee Roasters—such a cozy spot with plenty of sitting. Tried their Guatemala drip and it was really, really good. Had the white peach green tea that was recommended by the fellow on the line and was not disappointed too - so…
