| - The only reason I'm giving Barriques 5 stars is that it will always have a special place in my heart, since I pretty much lived here during the last 4 months of my PhD dissertation writing.
And there was nothing better than writing straight for 7 hours, downing 5 cappuccino skim extra shot and soup for lunch, then rewarding yourself for doing such a good job with a glass of wine at 7pm. Yes. This was my pattern for the aforementioned time period.
Also, coffee shops should realize that (besides having a liquor license) PEOPLE NEED OUTLETS for their laptops. Barriques has listened to our plea, and not only has outlets every other table, but has extension chords with multiple outlets also, leaving everyone with extra choice of outlets.
Comfy chairs, rustic tables, loft style open layout makes this place inviting.
Of course, what sucks is that everyone knows about it, and if you go after 11am, the place is packed. This of course, forced me to get up earlier and write more... So good for them!!
