The coffeehouse will be the primary tenant of a four unit live/work building, at 1602 Liberty Street.
Dwellings, a real estate company, will be opening in the bay next to Three Layers.

January 21, 2008, 05:19:53 AMThey've been working on this for several months and their opening's moved back one month, as they first said it would be in February....I'm excited about this, and am anxious for it to open!

January 21, 2008, 08:36:15 AMThat would be Walnut & 6th. Not Liberty St.

January 21, 2008, 09:02:01 AMGreat!!! Looking forward to it!

January 21, 2008, 09:39:18 AMGood for Springfield I hope they support this. I am always skeptical about a coffee house without a drive through. I like the walk in atmosphere but the window will make the money.
jbm32206
January 21, 2008, 10:28:41 AMWhen you think about it, most of the decent coffee shops don't have a drive thru. Just like the place on the next block, Tommy's does a fantastic business and they're not drive thru. This new one will have a different variety on it's menu and it's decor looks to be inviting for people to sit and relax....so this will draw a different crowd.
I live just down the street and have been watching the progress made, I've met the gentlemen who own it and it's very tastefully done...this will be a great asset to our neighborhood!

January 21, 2008, 11:37:07 AMThat's a nice looking building - how come we haven't knocked it down yet?
JeffreyS
January 21, 2008, 11:50:05 AMI agree the better coffee houses do not seem to have drive thrus. I just want one because I work but I do not live in the area.
jbm32206
January 21, 2008, 01:10:57 PMI'm sure you'll be able to get in and out quick enough....and if it turns out to be as good as it sounds, it might be worth leaving the house a few minutes earlier....know what I mean?
jbm32206
January 21, 2008, 01:12:02 PMThat used to be a church, believe it or not....and once they get things really settled in, they'll have the patio out back to enjoy.
suburbiasucks
January 21, 2008, 02:04:49 PMWith all due respect, that kind of strip mall thinking is exactly what's wrong with this place. For a lively residential neighborhood to develop, a corner coffee joint (and other businesses) should only cater to the nearby residents and the walk in crowd. Leave your car at home. Please!
RiversideGator
January 21, 2008, 02:33:13 PMLooks great! Where is the other coffee house in Springfield?
JeffreyS
January 21, 2008, 02:48:46 PMWhen we get that commuter train out to Fleming Island I promise to leave the car at home. I hope I wasn't overly critical I had the Coffee shop across from panther creek close and that was bad for my commute. I went in but lots of people didn't and now it's the gas station in the morning for me.

January 21, 2008, 05:24:23 PMIsn't making coffee at home pretty easy? No one seems to do that.
jbm32206
January 21, 2008, 06:22:08 PMI do...every morning...but I don't make pastries...
second_pancake
January 22, 2008, 09:36:57 AMIt's not the coffee, it's the experience
jbm32206
January 22, 2008, 04:04:23 PMYou said it, SP...that's exactly what it is...the atmosphere!
thelakelander
January 22, 2008, 04:22:03 PMHopefully 2008 will be the year that Springfield finally becomes a neigborhood filled with "third place" type businesses.
midnightblackrx
January 23, 2008, 07:30:23 AMthere maybe more coffee shops downtown than people living here. Do we have hard numbers?
lisa t
February 21, 2008, 07:48:07 PMI cannot wait until this coffee house opens. Everything that these two guys touch, turns to gold. They are dedicated to making things the best they can be... and this coffee house will NO DOUBT be a success.
I love the idea of the realty company being adjoined. This property will truly be an asset to the neighborhood.
CAN'T WAIT GUYS!

February 24, 2008, 05:21:10 PMThis seems as if it would be a nice addition to springfield.
teresangel
March 09, 2008, 07:02:55 AMI pass it at least twice a day but haven't met the owners because of my schedule. It's a week into March, any additional news on when it's opening???
jbm32206
March 09, 2008, 07:16:22 AMIt's scheduled to open on the 21st...
thelakelander
March 09, 2008, 01:05:43 PMYou can get a sneak peak, along with free coffee and cake at this Thursday's SAMBA meeting. Three Layers is the host and will be giving a presentation on their new business.
gatorback
March 09, 2008, 02:06:34 PMIf you can afford to make good coffee at home go for it. This is what you'll need.
Triple Reverse osmosis water filteration center maintained, checked and calibrated daily by trained staff.
Horribly expensive commercial coffee making maintaining hot water to excatly 200 degree F.
You'll need freshly ground coffee of the highest quality.
Preferribly a gold filter (gold just hit 1,000 an ounce)
Or just brew some maxwell house (no offense) using recycled human waste water from your local municpality without any additional filtering, recycled newspaper coffee filters, heating the "water" to god knows what temp and poising yourself all the same with the carcinogens that the colorine didn't kill.
If that's the way roll
Jason
March 11, 2008, 12:43:24 PMWha? A bit synical today are we, Gatorback?
gatorback
March 11, 2008, 01:33:53 PMIt probably has to do with I had just paid $8.00 at starbucks for that horrible Honey Latte and that crumb and streusel (I don't know the difference) treat which I ended up getting the wrong one...I wanted the one with the red things it but I got the Cinnamon one. I didn't say anything because that's the way I roll. I just take it and the rant on my fellow bloggers. Sort of passive agresive I know.
second_pancake
March 11, 2008, 02:58:17 PMROFLMAO. Ok, the honey latte just freakin SOUNDS gross. I dont' know why you would order that to begin with, and then on top of that having some sugar-laden pseudo-pastry??? You gotta find a coffee house and stick to it so they know your name and drink when you walk in the door. I'm a star at the one on S'side and Baymeadows
gatorback
March 11, 2008, 05:00:02 PMGreat! That $8.00 would have been $10.50 for all organic. I know this because I shop at whole foods and they are not inexpensive.
Jason
March 11, 2008, 06:45:00 PMWell rant away Gator! I'll take my home's fitration system water run through a coffe pot full of my hometown Maxwell House coffe over Starbucks any day. Gotta support my homies, especially if they pump out a good brew.
gatorback
March 11, 2008, 07:37:05 PMYou Are A Puppet. Just kidding.
JeffreyS
March 22, 2008, 12:08:52 AMThe owner gave me a quick tour Friday and it looks great. See everyone there Monday morning. They will be open this weekend also.
Sean or Shawn said he and his partner moved here from Atlanta. They love springfield and cakes will be the specialty.

March 22, 2008, 04:20:35 PMThe grand opening was very well attended....the place, the coffee and eats were wonderful! It was great to see such a wonderful turn out.
fsujax
March 24, 2008, 08:09:37 AMI made the trip to try out the new coffee house on Saturday morning. It was a good experience. The coffee was great, the desserts looked awesome and there was a really nice turnout. It was geat to see people walking, biking and driving there. I wish them great success.
JeffreyS
March 24, 2008, 10:40:59 AMTried right at 10am today but door locked. I hope there is not a problem.
02roadking
March 24, 2008, 11:16:51 AMThe normal hours of operation will be Tues-Sunday 7am-11am and 5pm-9pm. CLOSED ON MONDAYS.
Jason
March 24, 2008, 12:58:22 PMMondays are probably the single most important day for coffee drinkers. It helps to motivate them and increase "chipperness" on what many say is the worst day of the week. If I didn't have my coffee on Monday morning I would likely hurt someone or myself.
fsujax
March 24, 2008, 01:26:56 PMMaybe if business is godo for them they will open on Mondays in the future.
RiversideGator
March 26, 2008, 11:37:22 AMI visited Three Layers this morning and I was impressed. The inside and outside look great and the coffee was good too. I think this really bodes well for the surrounding neighborhood too. Perhaps retail in Springfield will begin its resurgence first in the interior of the neighborhood and only later make it to Main Street. Springfielders (and other Jacksonville urbanites) should definitely support this place.

March 26, 2008, 06:30:05 PMStill haven't gotten in there. My graveyard shift sleep cycle will probably necessitate(sp?) stopping in before bed
I love the new "closed" sign though

October 31, 2008, 08:35:01 AMWas in there last night, good stuff. I liked their Berry Cheesecake the most.
