![I've been here twice in the last 6 months and keep forgetting to list it. Caffespresso is excellent limited seating, well at least when it's packed like yesterday. Very good coffee drinks and nice ambiance. Tasty looking pastries and sandwiches as well. And if that's not enough you can stop by next door to get your gun fixed or buy a new one. What more could you ask? massage? Chiropractor? Yep that's on the other side of the coffee shop. Enjoy!](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/2/ea4eb0c55dd05a44f08b551f646c2a83.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=350&h=192&q=medium)
