I give this place 4 stars for the following reasons: great atmosphere, solid coffee, lots of seating options (indoor, upstairs, front and back patios), good beer selection, live music, always seems to be open even late.
I don't give the last star for the following reasons: leaving pastries out for flies to land on them (gross), apathetic/mud fence personality employees, mediocre food, higher prices than comparable inde coffee shops.
