Two Mugs, One Plate
By: 74days
Summary: Being an Incubus wasn’t exactly weird when you spent most of your free time in a crappy coffee shop owned by the grumpiest Pixie in New York, so Bucky felt like he fit right in. He’d even managed to mould the lumpy couch into something comfortable, so it wasn’t too bad. Until he walked in one day to find someone in his spot.

percolating
By: Zekkass

I’ve Suffered Shipwrecks
By: paperclipbitch
Summary: AU. Most people, when they break up, sort through their record collections, possibly chuck each other’s clothes onto the sidewalk, engage in soul-destroying coffee dates where they try to sort through the emotional debris, and then leave each other the fuck alone. Clint and Natasha were never very good at acting like normal people, though, which is why they run a cafe together.

Starbucks Can Suck It
By: miss_music666, humanedisaster
Summary: Clint is just living his life. He owns his coffee shop, he hangs out with Steve, Natasha, and Bucky and ignores that little bit of his heart that tells him he’s lonely. But when a foodie comes into his shop and makes it his life goal to pick out his favorite drink on Clint’s ridiculously long list of ridiculously titled beverages, Clint falls a little in love. But things keep getting in the way of, what Clint is sure to be, their awesome romance.
