| - I really want to support local businesses, and have been here numerous times, but the Purple Perk is consistently plagued by loud music, cramped seating and slow service. The coffee is good, the food is good, though neither stand-out from other coffee shops. The staff are friendly and work hard, but service can take a long time, even when it's not especially busy. Trying to find a path from the counter to a table (if one is available, that is!) is like finding one's way through a maze, as the tables are all set very close together. A simple fix would be to get rid of the sign by the front display case, and to replace some four-seat tables with two-seat tables to open up a bit more space. And turning down the music would improve the store's ambiance -- if it's busy enough for patrons' conversation to drown out the music, there's no need to crank the music up!
