They are officially open!
I came here to check-it out and see how much it's changed. The inside is a lot brighter and offers more of a cozy coffee shop vibe that the former Starbucks, who moved down the road. The coffee seems to be the same as SBUX, bitter on the aftertaste with the flavor pretty much sucked out by over roasting.
It you're looking to escape the heat you've found it. This place is freezing, seriously consider bringing a jacket if you plan on staying here for a while to work on your laptop or read one of those book thingies.
Overall, it's a corporate coffee chain. It's very utilitarian, like an army Jeep it helps you get from point A to point B.
Crushed Ice. Has got me crushin'.
