Coffee Time

Well its finally happened. The infamous Coffee Time at the corner of Mary St. and Highway 2 (King St.) has closed its doors.

This place has always been seedy hotbed of activity for many years earning it the nickname of "CrackTime". A lot of people have been hoping it would close for years (including me) but now that it has I cant help but feel bad. Bad because it was actually a legitimate business and in a downtown that is losing businesses at an alarming rate it seems that it was ultimately good for the downtown.

Although I cant argue that this was a nice place to go and hang out. If you ever said that you were going to go there I would have advised you to leave your wallet at home unless you are a crack dealer, then its a great place to go. Plus, good god the actual coffee you got from there was absolutely herendous It tasted like it was filtered through old gym socks and weak as hell, like 80 year old grandmother of 13 weak.

I just hope they replace it with something good, even a higher end coffee shop like Second Cup or something. Maybe high end atmoshpere and product will keep the good people happy and the bad people out.....or at least make them a little uncomfortable.
