Rick Tanner: 'The Coffee Corner Is Living a Lie'

I ordered a 'house blend.' What arrived was neither a blend nor worthy of any house. The beans tasted like they'd been roasted during the Carter administration. The barista smiled. I did not smile back.

Three stars - but only because the croissant was adequate and the Wi-Fi password is still 'coffeetime' which I find charmingly naive in this age of cybersecurity theater.
