| - I was working on the run and figured every good coffee shop has wireless, so I hopped into Barriques to set up camp for a couple hours. I knew they had good coffee, and they were convenient to where I needed to be.
I ordered a breakfast sandwich (egg/cheese/sausage) with my coffee. The sandwich was ready right away, which was nice. It seemed to be served on a dinner roll - that struck me as strange, but it worked. The ingredients were fresh and tasty - who am I to question their bread selection? The coffee was good, as usual. I appreciate the inexpensive refills as I was going to be there long enough to require one.
I had issues with the wireless. Not THEIR issues, as I was able to get on the internet and do things, but I was not able to VPN into work. That kinda stunk, as I was hoping to get a few things done. I thought maybe my computer was goofy (always a possibility), but now that I'm on a different wireless network, I'm connected into work just fine. Go figure. I'll have to keep that in mind if I work remotely again.
But, overall, I like Barriques. On top of good coffee and food options, they have a huge selection of wines and liquors. It's a great business model - make everyone happy no matter the time of day.
