After a week of voting, MetroWest area voters have crowned their favorite spots to grab a cup of coffee.

While one town runs on Dunkin's, another prefers Starbucks, and another selected Honey Dew, most towns in the area selected locally owned shops.

Congratulations to all the winners!

Starting tomorrow, return to Patch to vote on the best florist in town.

Framingham: Panache Coffee

Grafton: Stir Crazy

Holliston: Coffee Haven

Hopkinton: Hopkinton Gourmet

Marlborough: The Coffee Loft

Milford: Honey Dew Donuts

Natick: Java's

Northborough: Lalajava

We're very fortunate in Holliston to have a number of locally owned shops. It's great to see the support for all of them, new and old. We have been going to Coffee Haven since it opened more than 10 years ago and love all the staff.

Framingham has lots of negatives but you can't complain about places to get coffee.

I personally prefer Red Barn Coffee Roasters which is available at a number of locations throughout MetroWest..in Hopkibnton, Westboro, Southboro (two locations starting tomorrow), Bolton, and in Boston.

Red Barn Is definately the best coffee in Hopkinton.

Dunkin Donuts coffee is the best brew - just wish the shop on Rte 9 were more pleasant - then it would be a place to meet and have coffee. Rally don't like Starbucks - but it is convenient and inviting to meet a friend.

Panera Bread in Milford & Franklin are my choices for best coffee. Variety & ambience.

I love Coffee Sensations in Medway. Great independent coffee shop with free WiFi!

I love coffee, and honey dew is great, but I wish we had more local and independent coffee shops in Milford, I would prefer to pay a local business. and they usually have many coffee selections!

Sudbury Coffee Works on Union is another favorite of mine and just over the border of Framingham. I just wish they had longer hours and were open on Sundays.

Sure wish there was a Tim Horton's in the North Framingham/Sudbury area..
