Laura - 2004-12-17 20:26:05 I like Bombadill's, too, but the coziness of the many nooks at the Ugly Mug won me over. In comparison, Bombadill's is kind of a big empty space. Very nicely decorated and rag-painted, with very nice people working there, mind you--it's just my personal preference for (romantic) nooks that won me over to the U.M. YMMV.* * * * * * * * * * * * Confession - 2004-12-17 22:46:12 I guess it was the nearly life-sized plastic Jesus, plucked from some outdoor nativity scene, perched on top of a cooler, and lit from within, benevolently smiling down upon a poker game going on, that sealed the deal. At any rate, I plan to make the U.M. my post-work pre-bike-ride-home R&R hangout. OK, I'm done raving about the U.M.* * * * * * * * * * * * Dave D. - 2004-12-18 08:50:28 They have wireless too! :) I usually stop in first thing in the morning for coffee/bagel, and chat with the morning guy. I live in the neighborhood, and it's nice to have so many bus stops nearby. * * * * * * * * * * * * Laura - 2004-12-18 16:26:48 That is a good Wifi tip Dave D.; thank you. Yes, I just hopped off the #3 bus at St. John's--very convenient. I am looking forward to stopping off here to soak up the ambience before biking home. You could also eat a meal here: MENU: Pesto pita: $5.25. Pita pizza: $6.50. Soup: $2/$3. Vegan sandwich: [I'll skip this one] $5. Double Pita Quesadilla: $7. The Killer Bagel (open-faced, piled with good things): $4. Bagels, rolls, pastries: $1-$2.25. Chips and salsa: $3. Hummus & pita wedges [Ypsidixit loves this snack]: $4. Plus an exhaustive array of coffee drinks, yummy chai, tea, and juices. * * * * * * * * * * * * add your comment: |
