The linoleum floor around the counter is scuffed and dingy, the carpet is stained and worn, the couches are at least 15 years old, and the walls sport a mish-mash of cluttered artwork, chipped paint, and half filled nail holes. And yet, this coffee shop is one of the primary hang-out spots in town. And I imagine that if someone came through and replaced the linoleum, deep-cleaned the carpet, and re-upholster the couches, the town would be disappointed.
