    Ahhhh. a coffee shop around the corner from my house. finally. and so good too with such nice people running it.

  12. Some low life broke into the Urban Spirts Coffee House. We must show the owner that we will support her. We do not want to lose her in the neighborhood. I am calling on all my net friends to support her during this time.

    Call the city and ask them to support her by funding bars for her windows to decrease the chances of this happening again.

  13. Walker says:

    Bars on the windows? That would look awful.

    I’m a Business Development Manager with a staffing agency, I have my potential & existing clients join me at the Urban Spirit Coffee Shoppe. I can actually feel the presence of great spirits in the atmoshpere, it’s very relaxing. My favorite items on the menu are their French Cap coffee and their chicken salad, I don’t eat chicken but it’s sooo good it’s a must.

    I highly recommend everyone visit this cafe, you’ll be glad you did…..

    See you there!
