Joined a friend here for a Saturday mid morning coffee "brew and review" session. I was greeted with a bustling atmosphere. Plenty of seating with enough space to have a private conversation and not be on top of other patrons. Nice music, and more importantly, great coffee! I ordered an iced coffee and it was delicious. The pecan Blondie was even more delightful! 9$ and change for a 16oz coffee and treat which was reasonable. They also have some light fare on the menu (sandwiches and soup) which looked delicious.
