They do close around 3, so we made a point to swing by earlier in the day.
Anyway, this is a coffee shop ran by Catholic Priests.
We went in and ordered a couple of drinks. The friendly fellow who helped us seemed joyful and witty. I joked with him about having too many options to choose from and he had a quick witted response for any playful jab.
The shop was cozy and the coffee was great. The vibe inside was not stuffy and uptight...... like one might assume a coffee shop ran by priests might be (not to stereotype). It felt more upbeat, welcoming, and happy.
I know there are a lot of coffee shops out there right now connected to a church, or trying to be a part of some mission. I like seeing that sort of thing.... a business trying to do more than make a profit. This seems similar, but still totally different. I am not sure if there are many more coffee shops ran by priests, but I give these guys a HUGE tip of the hat.
