Ok, but they give over-the-top good service and make a fine drink.

I'm a big fan of the Daily Grind (is that the name?) in West Village on Electric Rd close to the intersection of Colonial. If memory serves they have wi-fi there. Perhaps I like the DG best because my kids go to North Cross which you can throw a rock and hit from the Daily Grind and I often bump into people I know there. None of the Starbucks are really on-the-way for me. Even the new one next to Home Depot off 220 in south roanoke is a pain to get into and out of.

For a killer smoothie you can go across the parking lot and hit Elderberries. Best 2,000 calories you'll ever have in a cup with a straw, lol.

Generic response to everyone else for your kind input.

Yes, DG was my favorite, but lately it looks like all of a sudden I've become handsome something a worker there keeps on staring at me all the time which is NOT welcome and very annoying, my body language has repeatedly sent msg of rejection to no avail, very weird and lack of self-awareness... sorry I have to whine... not sure if I'll go there often again, another thing, I also made sure to spend at least 10 dollar every time I'm there...

Starbucks, not bad but third party wireless service is hassle...

I've got the perfect solution! Buy this t-shirt and wear it when you're at the DG:

T-Shirt Hell :: Shirts :: DON'T SAY NO UNTIL YOU'VE SEEN MY DUNGEON

Of course there is a chance that this t-shirt will ENCOURAGE rather than discourage them. If that's the case you better get used to third party wireless Either that or buy lots of fuzzy handcuffs.
