What's on the bulletin board 2004
Part of a small chain; the other restaurant is in Evanston, IL.
Ambrosia now has wifi, and has always had lots of power outlets. The fair trade coffee is Roos Roast (or at least it was last time I checked).
The basement, previously used for storage, has been renovated as additional cafe space, more than doubling the effective size of the place.
[edit] In the news
- Coffee Shop Culture, Michigan Daily, November 2007
- (Owner Ed Renoullet) tries to cultivate a reputation as the "grad student café," he says, and he's met considerable success. The people who sit in Ambrosia look older than the typical Amer's crowd, unless they look younger - some local high school students have taken to sitting out front, and it seems that people sport longer hair and carry around more esoteric novels than they do at Starbucks.
