Great to meetup with longtime friends and also to run into folks you haven't seen in decades. Example On different occasions, 2 women gave me a double take - and comment how I look the same from 30 years ago). Excellent selection of coffees like Parlor City blend, distinctive muffins, interested staff, artwork on display, even a place to pin-up your business card with a wide exposure. Decent caliber crowd.

Java Joes' is across from Grand Royale, and next to Tom & Marty's Townhouse.

Enjoy...not a bad habit to have.

Terrific coffee house with several blends including what's known as Parlor City blend. Fresh, quality pastries, muffins and bagels. Interested staff Artwork often displayed by a local artist on the walls Occasionally play music from Southern Tier locals. Great place to pin-up your business card if you want wide exposure. Use your laptop here. Easy on and off Interstate.

Great place to meet good caliber folks, and somehow meetup with those from long ago. (My kind of people must be here because I met 2 women I knew from long ago on 2 differing occasions). But then, in any case, Binghamton has a truly special magic from long ago. Try it you'll really dig it. Lawrence Weinzimer
