008: West Side Diner
And service at the West Side Diner is fast enough that you're handed a cup of coffee practically as you sit down. To call the meal "simple" is to do it a disservice
007: Bolt Coffee
You think you will always have an affinity for Bolt. It sits in one of the commercial spots in the Biltmore parking garage, kitty-corner from City Hall. You remember that this was the first home of Ellie's, which was next to some more upscale version of urban outfitters that soon folded.
006: Lucky Enough
This is Lucky Enough.
When you were unemployed, you used to have something of a ritual here. You would walk to the dog park with Saga, let her roam for an hour or so, then make your way to Lucky Enough, where, if it was warm enough, you would sit and have a beer out front on the patio.
