What people say
I come in most mornings and Dana starts my Americano when she sees me park. Last winter she set aside a butter tart because I was running late.
Our book club had the back room every second Thursday for two years and never once got a bill for it. They put on a pot of decaf without being asked.
The chicken and rice soup is the only thing my dad will eat when he's sick, so I drive in from Elgin for it. They tape the lid on so it doesn't spill in the car.
The kettle's on. Come sit down.
We're at 24 Quarry Street, across from the post office, with parking behind the building. If the lights are on and the sign says open, so are we.
