This will be their main roasting location.
Smile Tiger Coffee is also served at Google and a number of other locations
Theme will be different than DVLB here with more of a Scandinavian look.
Plans are for a licensed patio out back too.
Opening is set for sometime in the Spring.
I was surprised to see the glass brick front of 100 Ahrens St blown out the other day, so I stopped to have a look. The building seems to be nearly fully occupied. The maple floors of the Smiling Tiger location have been refinished and look great. I'm assuming that the new street front will be mostly glass, which will make for a nice space.
