			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I first found “Hard Bean Cafe” through a <a href="http://twitter.com/HardBeanCafe" target="_blank">twitter</a> comment. Before going any further, I always check out the <a href="http://www.hardbean.net/" target="_blank">website</a>. </p>
<p>Here I found pictures, stories and lots of information on the people and the place itself. Great <a href="http://www.hardbean.net/coffee_sayings.htm" target="_blank">poetry and quotes</a> from famous people with welcoming pictures encourage me to check out this place.</p>
<p>Located at 801 Main Street in Grandview, it is a pleasant drive (especially now with the leaves turning beautiful shades of red and yellows and orange)</p>
<p>Walking in I immediately felt warmed and welcome. For 3:00 in the afternoon, the place was surprising filled. Tables of 2 and 3 patrons were scattered in the main area and others were sitting peaceably in the loft, reading quietly. Outside is a patio where you may relax on cool autumn days. Music playing at a background level (not blaring as in some places) enhanced the mood. Becca’s big smile drew us to the counter.</p>
<p>We placed our <a href="http://www.hardbean.net/Menu.htm" target="_blank">order</a> for steamer and latte, topped off with a delicious cookie. Attractively presented and wonderfully made, our taste buds were pleased and satisfied.</p>
<p>Main Street Movie Club meets there to view and discuss movies. This takes place in the loft where you can sit comfortably at bistro tables or in overstuffed sofa and chair. The projector and screen are hooked up and ready to go. (for more details on this event, <a href="http://www.hardbean.net/MainStMovieClub.htm" target="_blank">click here</a>) The loft is available for use, check the website for details.</p>
<p>Both Nate and I took along our laptops, attached to the free wi-fi and set out completing some projects that we could not seem to focus on and complete working from home.</p>
<p>The visit was successful, my steamer was luscious, and I will be returning.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="drop_cap">H</span>arry&#8217;s Mug Coffee Bar sits across from Truman Corners shopping center at 12222 Blue Ridge Extension in <a class="zem_slink" title="Grandview, Missouri" rel="geolocation" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=38.885,-94.5225&amp;spn=0.1,0.1&amp;q=38.885,-94.5225%20%28Grandview%2C%20Missouri%29&amp;t=h">Grandview, Missouri</a>. Harry is <a class="zem_slink" title="Harry S. Truman" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_S._Truman">Harry Truman</a> who’s childhood farm is somewhere nearby.</p>
<p>The decor includes several pictures of Harry including the famous ‘Dewey Defeats Truman photo. The counter is actually a bar complete with comfy looking barstools.  The <a href="http://www.kccoffeehouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/deweydefeatstruman.jpg"><img style="border: 0px none ; margin: 12px 12px 12px 7px; display: inline;" title="dewey-defeats-truman" src="http://www.kccoffeehouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/deweydefeatstruman-thumb.jpg" border="0" alt="dewey-defeats-truman" width="306" height="232" align="left" /></a>rest of the seating is sturdy looking tables surrounded by iron chairs and a cozy corner couch and chair. KLOVE was playing on the sound system and a nice 46” flat panel TV at one end.</p>
<p>The menu is deceptively small as it appears they have every flavored syrup known to man and all the equipment needed to keep any barista happy. Some of the specialties look especially intriguing such as the Almond Joy which is made with chocolate , almond, and coconut flavors, the Truman’s Truffle with chocolate and raspberry syrups, and the Banana Split with chocolate, caramel and banana flavors. I wonder how many of those they sell?</p>
<p>I enjoyed a Latte as I sat on the comfy couch in the warm afternoon sun.  The WiFi worked well and I was able to write up this review and save it as a draft quickly and easily.</p>
