“I Spy Cafe Verde (or at least the floor above…),” writes Noah Levin. The building on North Fourth is “all of 200 feet from the Observer’s door,” points out Ross Orr. “It’s the People’s Food Co-op’s cafe,” adds Jeri Hollister. “I love that place.”

Cafe Verde, in operation since 2001 and renovated in 2004, is the “green below” the ornamented windows featured in February’s I Spy. Part of the People’s Food Co-op, Cafe Verde is run with the same principles that guide the socially responsible, environmentally friendly natural food store, selling fair trade coffee as well as a multitude of other beverages, baked goods, and items from the co-op’s hot and salad bar.
