Grand Prix cafe
I have to put in a good word for the Grand Prix Cafe. Blogging on-location now. It's a new place on Mass Ave just south of Davis Square, between the Dover and Day street intersections.
The one staff d00d here is very friendly and insisted that I taste both the coffee blends they had before I ordered one. The house blend is actually their own and it's quite yummy.
It's also a nice bright space with a nice view of, um, traffic (but hey, it fits the vaguely automotive theme - according to a poster to davis_square the owner is a retired racer) and there's both free WiFi and plentiful power outlets. Thumbs up from me.
Oh, ha, someone else came in and asked the guy (who is not the owner) how business has been, which I thought about doing myself but then didn't. He said, "...Good. It's too early to really say, you know?" There is a sign behind the counter that says "Never, Never, Never Give Up!" and there are a handful of dollar bills tucked between it and the wall. Good thinkin.
