I meet people at Caribou Coffee on a regular basis. They have good Chai, don’t play Paul McCartney on their sound system, and have totally free wifi. Their prices are competitive, they shy away from snooty-sounding names for their beverage sizes, and their staff is genuinely friendly.

One location, at 1400 E Hampden in Englewood, CO, has gone another step to prove they are better than those other guys, and now provide free power, too. A power strip encircles the public seating area. You can browse the net, and recharge your cell without fighting for an outlet. Way to go to make life even better for all of us harried, laptop-laden entrepreneurs!

This week, they handed out samples of coffee to take home to brew. I got a little bag of “Columbia,” enought for a small pot. Husband brewed it, and gave his review, as follows:

Me: What do you think? How is it?

Husband: Good.

Me: Anything else? Full-bodied, mellow, rich, dark, bitter…?

Husband: Tasty.

There you have it. Columbia coffee from Caribou is Good and Tasty.
