Paris on the Platte

COMMONS PARK. Have plenty of music ready to enjoy, because the service at this venerable coffee house is notoriously slow. But the people-watching is unmatched on a late Friday night, as evidenced by tables full of high school goths and smatterings of yuppies capping off their bar-hopping jaunts with punches of caffeine. If music and coffee aren't enough, the WiFi is free, and you can use one of their computers or CD burners for $4 an hour.
