CG hosted an event on Saturday where you could meet Republican candidates that won their primaries. I had never been there before because it's a little far from my house, but this seemed like a good excuse to go over there. I got to meet candidates for school board, city counsel and for congress.
CG is a small coffee shop close to US19 off of Ulmerton Road. They have the standard fare offered by any coffee shop; however, the decor is most certainly "conservative" as in Pro-Trump. The owner organized the record-breaking Trump Boat Parade. In the back, there is a replica "Oval Office" where you can take pictures behind the Big Desk like you're the POTUS. I don't think it would be fair to make a full review based on this one visit since it was a "special event" and not indicative of the everyday atmosphere that a CG customer would experience, but despite a long line that at some points stretched out the door, the owner/proprietor would routinely shout out funny one-liners (mostly at the expense of Democrats) which made the waiting a little more tolerable (and fun). Lots of kids showed up, people brought their dogs and sat outside and thankfully, the weather held.
I definitely need to go back on a random Tuesday just to fully appreciate the place without the large crowd. I won't lie: if you're not a Trump person and/or have no sense of humor, you won't like this place. You'll most likely get triggered and never come back. But if you are, this is a (giggle) "safe space" for sure. Have a coffee, have a bagel.
