"But we burnt it just for you!" This an exclaimation from yet another local and dissatisfied customer of the Old Louisville Coffee Shop.
I have lived in Old Lou for a while now, and have yet to meet anyone who truly appreciates the shop for anything other than the compulsory dose that they require in the morning, or free internet.
When I first arrived in the nighborhood, I was relieved to see the cute, little independent store just around the corner. I am addicted to coffee. Now I turn my head in shame.
