| - So I've been coming to Solo for probably a few years now, and am trying to finally step up my yelp game, so here goes:
Chad, the owner, is always in a friendly, helpful, good vibe kinda mood. I work in the service industry, and it's not always easy to remain upbeat and happy, so I know how that goes. He's always on his A-game, though, and I find that he hires really good-hearted staff as well. They remember your drink if you go in regularly enough, and they're fast, but friendly...always ask you how your day is going. There's really something to that, ya know? And not just the generic "how's your day?" where the person couldn't care less, but an actual genuine question that they want to know the answer to.
The prices are great, right on par with a normal coffee shop pricing structure. You can get just about any coffee drink your little heart desires.
They recently remodeled so as to incorporate a barber shop at the front of the store. Not gonna lie, originally I was a little bit weary/skeptical of this idea. Wasn't sure how it would turn out, but honestly it looks REALLY nice, and I think once they build their clientele a bit more, it's gonna be awesome! It looks super clean and the space feels a lot larger than it did before actually. I don't usually hang out in coffee shops for extensive periods of time, maybe every once in a while I'll drop in and read a book or play around on my iPhone for an hour or two, but not extensive, like I said... so I don't think the smaller coffee shop space in back affects me greatly. I know other customers may have been unsure about that.
All in all, I love this spot. Their spiced iced toddy is the ISH. A must-try.
