been out of touch and out of town for a while. so ventured back to my safe places i rely on and this place does not disappoint. while a small competitor to the giant Starbucks, i get feelings of grandeur when i walk in this place. Surrounded by the aroma of fresh brewed strong coffee i love while i wait, i can sit outside, in the brisk fall air and people watch. their coffee rivals starbucks, they leave room for cream if you ask for it. the best part is i've never had to ask for a sleeve to fit over the hot cup. it's like starbucks rations them. hey if i'm paying 4 bucks for coffee, why should a sleeve be optional? oh and the dar-jeeling tea is served in a variety of ways but always steaming hot and tastefully strong. that's my take. i'll......be back!
