First off, I avoid the mainstream coffee places and seek out locally owned places, and I'm glad I did. This is a gem of a coffee house. There are beautiful paintings on the walls and of course, games of chess to play. They also have checkers, mancala, and a bookshelf full of book options. The owner is lovely and makes a good strong coffee. You can grab a quick snack like donuts, muffins, and a few different kind of sandwiches and wraps. I'll definitely be a return customer.
