while on 'hiatus' I was a real frequenter to this newly renovated Hasting's location, which by the way is a step up from the old locale, and I was made to feel at home from the first day. The barista staff got to know me so well that they would tease me about rolling a sleeping bag out in front of the fireplace! not to dismiss the rest of the hasting's staff but it was the Hardback Cafe where I would set up my temporary 'office' and sip on my favorite latte. Go see Gwen and her crew at the Hardback if you need to be around friendly people and grab a cappuccino or latte while you're there!
Pros: My 2nd hogan for a while
Cons: keep your sandals on!
