"The Sidekick is a comic book store and cafe. The first thing you notice when you enter the shop (aside from the fantastic aroma of coffee) is that the place just feels Super-friendly (yes, I said it). Warm tones emanate from the red and yellow exposed brick walls and the reclaimed wood of the service counter. Brightly lit as the sun comes in through the storefront window it’s easy to settle into enjoying an espresso drink, a locally-baked pastry and a good book. A six-shelf display filled with the latest issues (the shop receives weekly orders!) of Image, Marvel, Vertigo, DC and other publishers sits between the counter and the shelf-lined brick wall displaying a wide range of graphic novels and action figures. Added bonus: one wall is adorned with a graphic mural created by the shop’s owner Chris Watton." - Rob Fujimoto
