For those friends of mine who work like wandering nomads with laptops, here’s a tip…  (if you don’t know me you should move on to other things.  Everyone knows I am full of B.S.)   

Apre Diem

• The patio is always pleasant and a decent in-town view (lots of trees)
• WiFi isn’t the fastest but always available
• Music is never annoying (and sometimes awesome)
• They have excellent gourmet coffees
• They have excellent food
• They have beer
• They have high Gravity beer
• SO close to everything
• Prices are reasonable
• Did I mention High Gravity Beer?

Now, Power outlets are limited.   And if I find you in my seat, You’ll have to roshambo me for it.  I go first.

The only drawback would be the occasional smoker.  Every now and again you get some bone head who still thinks smoking makes him/her look cool even though it really makes them look like a complete dumb-ass lacking intelligence, self control or self esteem.  Usually it encourages me to listen to their phone calls where I wonder why the person on the other line doesn’t tell them what a waste of energy, not to mention oxygen, they really are.  Its not that smoking makes you bad (ok, it does, but not cool bad), its that smoking is a coffee shop patio is similar to pleasuring yourself in your high school bathroom.   Yeah…  I’ll bet that brought back some harsh memories!  Stop smoking on my patio, you dufuss.
