Great Reviews of Maude's Cafe - Gainesville, Florida

Thanks for the great reviews on Yelp:

"There is a reason Maude's Cafe is known affectionately as "...The Known Center of the Universe." Here is a place that has outlasted competitors, survived the deliberate placement of Starbucks right next door to this local gem, and Maude's even set up a great eclectic little bar called Maude's Sidecar, which will undoubtedly survive the new bar going into the flatbread joint on the next block called, yes, "Sidecar." The reason is that Maude's is all inclusive of anybody regardless of race, creed, age, orientation, socioeconomic status, or any other dividing line. Truly, the most interesting people congregate at Maude's for study, conversation, cocktails, off-the-wall shows, musical entertainment, and when that's not happening, you will no doubt hear great ambient music from early in the morning to late at night. You can be seen in the windows and from the street, or hide deep within the confines of the peculiar and intriguing hand-crafted seating. There is a confluence of authenticity at Maude's. One engages the business more like a person than a profit center. Maude's engages with you--invites you to interact and be a part of the scene. It evolves, it responds, and it satisfies on many levels that simply can not be accomplished by its corporate imitators. Profound, not always perfect, but always perfection for those who wish to explore the real cosmic Gainesvile synchronicity that always seems to culminate here. And it's pretty much the only classic coffee shop that can juice up your coffee with some Jamison's at 8am if so be the case. And the outside patio is smoke and pet-friendly."

"Was visiting Gainesville for the weekend and had to come here while in town.  This place is consistent, unique, and a must.  I stopped by while walking downtown for the art show over the weekend.  Since it was crisp outside, I got a hot raspberry mocha which was unreal and my fiancĂ© got an Irish coffee which he really enjoyed too.  Was only there for a short time, but there are games available to use while you're there, they also have both indoor & outdoor seating for when you want to hang for a little while.
