The wireless network could do with some work though I’m not a coffee drinker, but I’m pretty sure they changed their beans recently when Starbuck’s and Gene went in.

Mr. Licker, I wish you would have read my comment more thoroughly, I specifically stated that I don't "hate on the businesses" only their coffee. So to put it in layman's terms, I am not "trashing an establishment". I am a fan of Prado's, Gene's, and Soma's americanos, though it does depend on who is making it. I've been tipped off that Farfala on Cordova, in the Koret loft retail spots, has great coffee. Maybe you can test the water s for the rest of us, and then we can challenge you to your tastebuds once more! Ha!

I've tried it on more than one occasion, and it is right up there with the crap at Blakes in Gastown. Albeight, both afore mentioned cafes get kudos for their establishments, they DO NOT get kudos for their fares. Maybe you need to re-test your taste buds? Listen Aaron,
