VERY IRRITATING
But apparently it doesn't hurt their business, as even on weekdays you see groups of students gathered around a bottle, so, what the heck. I guess it seems cool to get a whole bottle of wine and drink it in a coffee shop. (Residents of BYOB cities will find this whole drinking a bottle much less impressive.)
Otherwise, the typical coffee shop fare will leave you pretty unimpressed. Sandwiches, cookies, scones, etc. I dunno, I don't like paying 8 bucks for a tuna sandwich and chips. But lots of people seem to love the food here, rave about it. Ho hum.
I tend to this Barriques is about as chic and pretentious as Wisconsin gets. Take from that what you will. I'll take another sip of this wine.
