Kafe Kerouac

I love Kafe Kerouac and have since I first walked in, reading The Town and the City. I sit in the front window, reading a book and drinking coffee. A perfect ending to any day.
Everyone there is always so friendly. They'll talk to you, or not. Mike, the owner, tends to hire people who already hang out there, so the atmosphere of the place isn't divided between employees and customers. The place is supported by the regulars who are varied and numerous. Interesting, artsy nerds. Grad students of various disciplines and undergrads of indeterminate discipline. Liberals, moderates and socialists. Queers, heteros and transfolks. People who love all kinds of music and all kinds get played.
Books. I have always come here to read. From that first day, when I happened to be a third of the way through Jack's first novel. Reading
