I love Ascend. Lovely Grace and adorable Timmy are the best baristas ever, smart, fun, easy-going and they make you feel right at home. Spacious, excellent selection on paraphernalia with 90s prices! Easy-to-deal-with website and the best specials and prices around. If ascend wasn't right around the corner, I'd drive out of my way to shop there. So lucky I live so close!
