Used to go when it was "Dean's Beans" & was quite impressed with the changes in looks & selections the new owner's made. Unfortunately being kid friendly is GREAT for people who like to bring their children but I have had too many near misses with small children running thru the shop while I was carrying a hot drink. I also use to go in with a book to read but the noise factor makes relaxing almost impossible. So that & my fear of spilling on a child, I have chosen to find other resources, unfortunately that usually means Starbucks. I really prefer to give my money to local businesses and did for over 10 years. Oh well things do change.
