Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
They'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!

That would be Walnut & 6th. Not Liberty St.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Good 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.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
When 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!

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
That's a nice looking building - how come we haven't knocked it down yet?

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
I 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.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
I'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?

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
That 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.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
With 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!

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Looks great! Where is the other coffee house in Springfield?

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
When 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.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Isn't making coffee at home pretty easy? No one seems to do that.
January 21, 2008, 6:22 pm
Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
I do...every morning...but I don't make pastries...

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
It's not the coffee, it's the experience

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
You said it, SP...that's exactly what it is...the atmosphere!

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Hopefully 2008 will be the year that Springfield finally becomes a neigborhood filled with "third place" type businesses.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
there maybe more coffee shops downtown than people living here. Do we have hard numbers?

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
I 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!

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
This seems as if it would be a nice addition to springfield.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
I 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???
March 9, 2008, 7:16 am
Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
It's scheduled to open on the 21st...

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
You 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.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
If 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

Wha? A bit synical today are we, Gatorback?

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
It 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.
March 11, 2008, 2:58 pm
Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
ROFLMAO. 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

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Great! 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.
March 11, 2008, 6:45 pm
Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Well 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.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
The 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.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
The grand opening was very well attended....the place, the coffee and eats were wonderful! It was great to see such a wonderful turn out.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
I 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.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Tried right at 10am today but door locked. I hope there is not a problem.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
The normal hours of operation will be Tues-Sunday 7am-11am and 5pm-9pm. CLOSED ON MONDAYS.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Mondays 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.
March 24, 2008, 1:26 pm
Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Maybe if business is godo for them they will open on Mondays in the future.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
I 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.

Re: Coffee House coming to Springfield
Still 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
