Coffee Shop in the Clubhouse

Wouldn't it be great to have our own coffee shop right here in Century Village? Why not ?  A coffee shop was  advertised as an added attraction in the original promotional literature for Century Village. and there was a coffee shop in the clubhouse at one time. It closed up for some reason or other and that was the end of it. There are some stories about the closure, Some say it closed because the customers were swiping the little packets of condiments and sugar, others say it was because of bad management.

               A coffee shop would be a great addition to the amenities. Take a look at the coffee and bagel shops adjacent to the village, There's a lot of CVers in them every day. That's because it's great to have a nice fresh toasted bagel and a hot cuppa joe for breakfast. It's even better if you can enjoy it with a few friends and good conversation.

               There's no good reason we shouldn't have a coffee shop right here . it There's a lot of good reasons why we should . A fresh hot toasted bagel is just one of them.

  2. Let's see... overhead costs, including rent, supplies, not to mention coffee creamers, sugar and artificial sweeteners plus the cost of cups, coffee makers stirrers, tables, chairs...by the time you add it all up you can have yourself a nice $4 cup'o joe. doubt many in the village would support it, but hey, give it a shot. As long as the village doesn't have to pay for it, maybe you can try to rent the space and do it yourself. Good Luck.
