This is my friend Dawn holding a cup of coffee at 399 on William St. This was taken a few months ago and I've been meaning to blog about it - not the coffee, 399. But it's kind of like falling in love - sometimes you come over all articulate, but in my case, which isn't that great for someone who writes, I came over all inarticulate. But what I can say is this:
- the coffee is great
- the bar peeps are friendly
- you can usually get a seat and not a hideously uncomfortable one, either at the bar, or in one of the many booths with the many cushions
- they have wifi
- they don't think you're a freak if you come in on Friday night and order coffee and play uno
- the bouncer will look out for a seat for you if you can't find one
- they have yummy biscuits
- ooh they have yummy other stuff - little plates of stuff
- although drinking isn't really my thing, they do offer some of the yummiest beers, including a wheat beer that won "best beer in the world" or something - it's $10 for a stubby which isn't much more than a crownie LOL
- they can show some serious cocktail love
- they play very funky, very laid-back, always appropriately pitched, tunes
Yup we love it there :-)
