Awesome. I might like your last building a bit better, but this one is awesome too. The weightlifter on the top is nifty too. :D

There are no quotes in a url tag.

I like the interior, and especially the rack o' junk. The counter is both simple and effective, like the rest of the interior. Those Wi-Fi pirates are a nice touch. :)

On a whole, I'd have to say that your pictures suck. If you can, I find that it's better to take pictures at a higher resolution, then scale them down. It's also a good idea to prop up the camera on a pile of books or something to keep it from moving.
Often, literally, a pillow fight but may include similar situations like volleyball, particularly when wardrobe is skimpy and the action is bouncy.

I like the fact that it's not just grey. Excellent architecture marked by non monotone color systems is a great plus for a building. Oh yah, and I love coffee.

I have one of those machines in my castle, except it dispenses Kool-Aid and water.

I put a coffee maker in every base I make, just for kicks.

Coffee maker?!
BAH! This is a La Marzocco Linea model, dual groups, twin boilers, manual shot control and steam control.
This is no corporate lobby automatic espresso vending machine.
This is teh corvette, Lamborghini, Cadillac, And the Koenigsegg of espresso machines.

anyway, enough with the crazy ranting, it really is a nice coffee shop, can you post pics of the inside?

A barista wearing a hat? baristas don't wear hats.
the dwarven helm is accurate though, we get a lot of people wearing those.
edit: also the line looks like sunday night at the coffee shop I work at.
we had people lined up out the door until we closed at 11:00pm
