Well, something like 15-20 minutes away from me is Starbucks, also there's Jerry's and Joes.

I love though a little coze place called Coffee cafe, which is very small and simple, but the people and coffee there are great)))
but most of all want to get to Sperl Coffe Cafe, it's so great!!!

In No. Cali. "It's a Grind"

Here, "Old Town Coffee Co." and "Siuslaw Coffee Company" are the locals and "Dutch Brothers", "Pete's Coffee" and "Starbucks" are the commercials.

Here in San Diego we have a ton.
A Fine Grind, It's a Grind, Jitters, , Juice n Java, Twigs, Urban Grind ... there are over 300 in San Diego County ... we used to have over 200 as our customers when I worked at Caffe Calabria Coffee Roasters.

Plus the run of the mill: Starbucks, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, etc.

I think I know the owner of Old Town Coffee Co.

If you could open your own, what would you name it?

Mine would be:
Mojo Java (which I own the domain)

I used to want "Bump-n-Grind" but I couldn't get the domain then I noticed a few named too similar.
