Cozy cafe in Davis/Porter Square?

Some of you may remember me from asking about mattresses (ended up going with Sleepy's...the girl I got helping me was so nice and tried everything she could to get me a good deal). So now with one need of the body met, I come to you O wise and much-knowing ones of the Davis and Porter Square area...

Where's a nice cafe I can curl up in for a while that /isn't/ Diesel? No offense against Diesel, of course...it's a lovely cafe that's an excellent meeting/first date spot, but...I'm used to slightly quieter cafes where one can actually use a normal speaking voice to be heard over the (low, but still there) din of the other caffinated multitudes.

I and my stack of books I need to read thank you.

Well, there's True Grounds up in Ball Sq, and Sherman over in Union. Sherman is my personal favorite: the food there is fantastic. Service can be slower than some other cafes, but it's still way faster than a restaurant.
