Café Ambróse

There was a new coffee shop a few blocks away from the university campus. There were flyers pinned everywhere for it, announcing its soft-opening a few weeks back and students were buzzing about how good and affordable their coffee and food were. The shop was a quaint, single-floor building. It had a nice glass window that looked out into the street with the words "Coffee is Life!" painted on the pane in fancy script with coffee and cake clip-art. The building had red-brick walls outside, giving it a warm look with a couple of round tables, iron-wrought chairs, and parasols for extra customer seating. There were a couple of flower boxes filled with blooms that changed flowers every now and then. There was usually a small chalkboard stand that announced that day's special cake/pastry.

The trees that lined the side of the street gave appropriate shade for passersby, but the branches were trimmed enough so that even the people across the street could read the sign out front, "Café Ambróse".
