Coffee Corner at Ward’s Corner
in Norfolk is kind of like Cheers (the television sitcom) without the alcohol.
There is a bar with stools, and tables if you want more room, as well as a
comfortable couch and a soft easy chair if you prefer.
The mainstay is, of course, coffee, and each day brings two or three flavors for
you to enjoy, as well as decaf and plain old regular, un-fancy coffee for the
people who are serious about their caffeine.
For munching, Bill and Donna have an assortment of cookies, cakes, pies, rolls
and Danishes. For a bit heartier appetite, there are breakfast sandwiches on
bagels, which are the best I have ever had anywhere. Hot dogs, assorted
sandwiches and soup round out the food items. It's not gourmet, but it is good,
solid, satisfying food. And the coffee and the Chai Tea are really good.
Oh, if you are at Coffee Corner for breakfast, the best egg, cheese and ham
bagel I have ever had is served. I don't know what they do to make it good, the
bagel is a soft bagel, but it is delicious.
As in any coffee shop these days, there are the cappuccinos, the espressos and
the flavored teas. Coffee Corner appeals to about any taste, no matter how you
like your coffee.
Regulars are often found to be sitting around, munching on sweets, drinking
coffee and conversing about their jobs, politics and each other's lives.
Mingling with the regulars are shoppers, business people, other shop owners and
friends of the regulars. Coffee Corner is a very civilized place, indeed, and an
ideal place to meet friends or appointments.
