Late Coffee in Lexington, KY
Lexington is well adjusted for morning people. They can enjoy all kinds of amenities open for them, when they wake up and start the day. But what about those who wake up at noon, hardly get out of their bed by 2pm, and still crave coffee at 6pm? How many opportunities do they have? Based on the opening hours of local coffeshop provided by OpenStreetMap, I created a map of places, where you can still get a cup of hot coffee after 6pm. The results are not inspiring.
