Epic Café

If you're an artist, writer, philosopher, intellectual, activist, freak or wannabe, chances are your ideal afterworld probably looks something like Epic Café. With its colorful walls, cool art and eccentric crowd, Epic Café can be a divine experience for those looking for a little inspiration. It's a great place to kick back, people-watch, eavesdrop or argue, whatever it is you need to do to get the lemon juice flowing. Treat yourself to a fine cup of joe while you're at it, and you might be surprised just how fast you find rapture.
