I recently got final word that Townsend Coffee Shop and Cafe in Princeton is going to be closing this Saturday. I worked at Townsend (and its previous incarnation, Eco Espresso) for a year and a half while living at home, and loved every minute of it. Being a barista was the best job I've ever had. Loved my coworkers, loved what I was doing, loved the regular customers. And it breaks my heart that what quickly became one of my favorite places in Bureau County will be closed. Sure, after moving to the new building and becoming Townsend, Eco did lose something of the charm it had, but it was still my fave.
But now that Princeton is once again going to be without a coffee shop, it got my gears turning on whether or not I would ever want to come back to Bureau County and open one myself. I've always liked the idea of owning a coffee shop, it being the only business I could see myself running successfully. Considering all the other things I want to do with my life, it would happen many years from now, but it is something I've been daydreaming about for the past week or so.
