Be prepared to flick your shoes off and relax. Busboys is a coffeehouse, restaurant and bookstore all rolled into one. You can choose to sit in their lounge on one of the many comfy couches -- where we spotted many people without their shoes on (but they definitely were wearing socks). Another great option is curling up with a good book from BB&P. This in-house bookstore features political reads and author events. As if that not’s enough, you can also be seated in the restaurant area and order anything from pizza to burgers to salads and more. Try to come on open mic night or during their daily happy hour, you’re guaranteed a good time.
