| - F'Coffee is weird.
It is never open (M-F daytime only), they have a lot of beer, and they seemed to want me to leave even though there were no other customers. I thought at first that it must be a front for something, but upon closer investigation of the fridge (stocked with butter and beer... [lard vs steel anyone?] ) and the guy in the back wearing a dirty apron hovering over the sandwich machine... I really think it's just a surly coffee shop.
Let's start with the coffee. There is no cappuccino on the menu but I asked for one anyways. The guy didn't really even acknowledge my request, just started making it. He broke out a big paper cup - a latte sized paper cup (they have cool cups here btw - integrated heat-shield-hand-thingy) and I was concerned. He took a long time to make my drink, and the espresso shot looked amazing. I believe this gentleman knows how to pull shots. He did not tell me the total, just took my 5$ bill and handed me change, and did not say anything else. It was weird.
Onto the rest of the menu - they have a lot of beer at f'Coffee, whish I think is strange because they are only open weekdays during the day, catering to the unemployed and work from home crowd. They did not have a good selection of baked goods today, although the case suggests that on other days there may be more to choose from. They have a lot of sandwiches to choose from, but again, there was no one there except me so... One last oddity: they had flyers there for Merchants of Green Coffee. WTF? You have flyers for a coffee shop around the corner on your counter?
Overall, I will never go here again. Ever. It's not like they would be open anyways. I would rate this a 1 star because the experience was poor, and I felt foolish when I walked home past Dark Horse - that I let my curiosity get the best of me and now must suffer with this latte cup of cappuccino. However... the coffee itself was decent, so 2 stars, but I still don't think you should go here.
