After reading about all the hype this weekend, I decided to check out the well publicized, highly reviewed, Nonna’s Delisioso in Midtown. This is not to be confused with the Nonna’s in New Cumberland, in fact, they’re not related at all.

For all of you waiting for a real coffeeshop to open downtown, your wish may have partially come true. Starbucks now has a larger footprint across from the Whitaker Center. It’s more than just the tiny coffeeshop inside the corridor between Strawberry Square and the Hilton. The Starbucks cafe isn’t exactly a Cornerstone variety complete with poetry readings and acoustic open mic nights, but it is a full blown coffeeshop in a downtown location.
And not really reopening, but relaunching is entertainment publication, MODE Magazine. It’s nice to see the familiar Harrisburg rag again, but are more people going to care than the 20 people on the front cover? Didn’t anyone tell these guys the last time they shut their doors that print is dead? Either way I’d rather read the local MODE than the Lancaster based Fly any day. Welcome back.

Actually, my band the Love Haters just played a Starbucks corporate event down in York this past Monday and one of the regional managers told me about this very Starbucks that’s going in across from Whitaker Center. She said it’s super nice inside and, YES, they ARE planning poetry readings and some acoustic music!
