| - On the road with a laptop, I was searching for a place to plunk down and scoop up some free wi-fi. Unfortunately, it took me a while to find this place. If I had found it sooner, I might have gotten more work done!
Once you find an open outlet (from the nest of extension cords by the windows) and hunker down over some good joe, you'll find the wi-fi quick enough, and the atmosphere pleasant enough to attend to any tasks that you may need to.
The breakfast sandwich here is a force to be reckoned with- eggs and bacon on a beautifully made croissant (flaky and authentic!) with cheese, it was healthy enough sized to feed two. Or me.
And if you stay here long enough into the evening, they transition gracefully into an indie music venue. The beer taps start flowing at 4PM, and when I was there it was open mic night, which a mix of slam poetry, talented musicians, and a few kooks thrown into the mix.
All in all, I have to say this place is a credit to Downtown, and adds a dimension of reality to the surreal place that is Fremont St.
