Bostonian's
Biz Brewing
A
touch of colonial Boston - with a twist - thrives in DeLand at Boston
Coffeehouse. The eatery and java center accents its
culinary offerings with early American atmosphere and amenities
ranging from a sit-back-and-relax couch to high tech Internet access.
"We
tried to create a colonial-style atmosphere," says owner Joe
Valente about the 50-seat coffeehouse. Brick walls, wood floors
and a reading room with television, couch and coffee table set the
stage. Food and drink selections move beyond colonial-era fare,
however. Lunch specials include such favorites as grilled Caesar
chicken wrap; bread selections include focaccia and panini. Three-
potato salad - red, white, and sweet potatoes - is popular.
"Lunch
is the bulk of the business, but the heart is still the coffeehouse,"
says Valente, who is from Boston. More than 40 java varieties are
available and customers may buy most bulk coffees for $8.99 to $9.99
a pound. Customers who'd rather stay a while can sit and chat or
read the books, newspapers and magazines always available. Specialty
drinks from the coffee bar include the standards cafe latte and
cappuccino and more exotic fare such as Razzle - espresso, steamed
milk, raspberry and almond topped with whipped cream and sprinkles.
Teas, sodas, fruit drinks and flavored hot chocolate (amaretto,
hazelnut) round out the menu.
