Fresh Space, Same Great Taste for MochaLisa's Caffe & Books
Cafe and bookstore MochaLisa's Caffe & Books is moving from its current spot next to GameStop in Clifton Park Center, to inside the mall's food court.
The new space is about the same size as the old, but with more freedom for the owners to utilize the space as they wish - they'll be able to have a stage for hosting author talks, for instance.
It's the perfect place to relax in a cozy chair while enjoying your beverage of choice. They're planning to be settled in the new space in November.
