Cafe Society is not a new idea. In Beethoven's time in Vienna, great minds gathered over coffee, a beverage that only recently had eclipsed tea as the Viennese hot beverage of choice, to discuss all manner of cultural and intellectual concerns, face to face, undistracted. The Stock Exchange of that day was conceptualized and created in a local coffee house. Coffee houses still exist today but Cafe' Society proposes a more social alternate to a computer screen. Discussion, locally produced art an …

We will try each of these coffee shops 1. BRIDGEPORT COFFEE HOUSE The coffee-roasting operation on the corner of Morgan and 31st Street is a point of pride for Bridgeport and a source of jealousy for almost every other neighborhood. Housed in a prototypically warm-toned, wood-heavy coffeehouse (only without the fleabag couches and drum-circle vibe), Bridgeport Coffee sets itself apart by roasting its own beans and brewing them with levels of respect usually reserved for presidents. The pour-ov …

I welcome anyone to join this group, and I look forward to t …

The bakery isn't particularly busy after 2pm which makes it a perfect place to congregate and focus, while it has plenty of distractions for down-time. Parking is easy and it's a large and comfortable space that …
