Val, I was thinking more of the post where the poster said there were some small places - and the problem was that later in the day the coffee was OLD, because the morning rush came and went. There is no way to make those places busier all day long so they would have to keep brewing fresh...it was a wishful thinking thought.

Actually - we have about 5 local coffee places; they are non-franchise.

And one Starbuck's, and one Tim Horton's.
