If you find yourself thinking that the coffee at your usual place is good but it’s missing something -- like buff shirtless male baristas -- then perhaps you should check out a brand new coffee place called Hot Cup of Joe.
Recently opened (February 14) in Spokane, Washington, Hot Cup of Joe is the perfect place for people who love coffee and are also die-hard Magic Mike fans. The owner, Chris Mullins, in an attempt to balance the scales of the bikini barista market, created a store that "women have been crying out for for a while."
For now, the baristas at Hot Cup of Joe are only shirtless, though Mullins doesn’t plan for it to remain that way for long. The complete fruition of his business would have the men of Hot Cup of Joe brewing coffee in nothing but "cute, classy underwear."
