All the suggestions I had were mentioned already, sorry. I've never been, but does 2nd St. Bistro have coffee? Not that I would ever need coffee at lunch or dinner. lol.Garrett Sawyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14419033988391051032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7659570700681116455.post-39579572122777372052008-04-08T19:49:00.000-07:002008-04-08T19:49:00.000-07:00Welcome to the nabe, Anonymous.

It was a nice atmosphere and the jazz band that played that night was terrific.<BR/><BR/>When I found out it was closed I was disappointed. I am sure that the Starbucks inside Target had something to do with it.<BR/><BR/>I do not go to Starbucks unless I have too. I would much rather my two dollars go to a mom n pop joint that to some corporation.<BR/><BR/>I too saw Bouveldt Cafe in downtown Pomona and I am looking forward to trying it. <BR/><BR/>As far as Euro Cafe I have a friend in Upland that swears they make great paninis for breakfast.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7659570700681116455.post-60216397292500649752008-04-05T17:38:00.000-07:002008-04-05T17:38:00.000-07:00GoP: So they are open now?

Today, for example, I got the last seat at the too-narrow counter.<BR/><BR/>I also tried Coffee Klatch this afternoon, calwatch -- or rather I tried to. It too was full to the gunwales, with no seats inside. Moreover, the music was poundingly loud, which is a bit of a deterrent for middle-aged me. I'll give it another try to see if today was a fluke.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the suggestions, both of you.

They also sell the chourico, and it's pretty good butterflied and grilled.<BR/><BR/>They make a variety of Portuguese dishes, such as a grilled steak covered with a fried egg and served with potatoes or caldo verde soup or a number of pasteries and baked goods. <BR/><BR/>The coffee and espresso are first rate as well. It's open fairly early for breakfast and is open until about 8pm on weekdays.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7659570700681116455.post-30051259489527083342008-04-05T11:58:00.000-07:002008-04-05T11:58:00.000-07:00I'll try it this afternoon -- thanks!Funny that I ...I'll try it this afternoon -- thanks!<BR/><BR/>Funny that I never saw it; I shop there fairly often.meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15246635448907995188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7659570700681116455.post-80102183196547100522008-04-05T11:54:00.000-07:002008-04-05T11:54:00.000-07:00The award winning Coffee Klatch. http://www.klatch...The award winning Coffee Klatch. http://www.klatchroasting.com/calwatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841732764880379020noreply@blogger.com
