Topless Coffee Shop in Maine

Topless Coffee Shop

What are your thoughts on this?

 

[iheartscience]

I just don''t know what my thoughts are! On the one hand, it''s kind of hilarious, but on the other hand I don''t really want shirtless people near my coffee or food! I did love the 80 year old woman harassing the male server, though!

 

[Deelight]

I see no issues with it - nice to see it is both men and women topless.

 

[steph72276]

Hmmm, I just think it''s weird. Coffee shops are quiet, it just doesn''t seem to fit with people walking around topless. And I hope they''re careful not to spill the hot coffee....ouch

 

[luckystar112]

I think it''s hilarious that they wouldn''t open a Hooters in the Old Port, but this allowed.

This coffee shop is now the fifth place where you might see boobies. The four others are strip clubs. Yup, only four in the state!

 

[Tuckins1]

I think they''ve found a niche and are reaping the benefits! Personally, I would not patronize such an establishment.

 

[Circe]

Equal opportunity objectification! Or, not .... I found it kind of telling that the owner specified what kinds of women he hired, without going into detail on the men. Wonder if there''s only the one guy there, for ... photo opps? Bouncing?

All that said, no problems here, though I do hope they''re careful with the hot beverages!

 

[April20]

I think they better be careful they don''t get burned. Coffee is hot!

As someone who''s breast feeding her infant, all I could think of when I read your post is...are any breast feeding moms going to be working there? Asking...would you like some milk with your coffee? lol..sorry I''m being so gross

luckystar, are you from Portland?

Yeah, it''s pretty funny that when a coffee shop has male waiters go topless it makes CNN but the strip clubs around here have been having Topless Donut mornings (or maybe it''s called Bagel Boobs?) for years!

Ditto

 

[somethingshiny]

I didn''t read the link, but as soon as I read the title, my thought was "OUCH, burnt boobies!!" Quickly followed by "that guy''s hairy chest is touching my cup!"

 

[Maisie]

I think its a bit odd. I wouldn''t want someones bosums wobbling next to me while I drink my coffee!

Neither would I!

 

[Shoopy]

Personally, I love it.

There''s nothing like a pair of boobies and a hairy chest to make the morning commute to work that much better.

 

[HollyS]

A novel idea, that will soon lose its novelty.

 

[Steel]

I wonder if female (or indeed male) staff signs a disclaimer in relation to their perception of sexual harassment in the workplace or indeed in relation to the potential of boob sag during the course of employment?

I also wonder who operates the not milk steamer.

I further wonder if the room temperature will be increased to facilitate the comfort of the (topless) staff and would that be too warm for customers who are properly attired.

(Cute topic CDNinNYC

)

 

[Maisie]

I wonder if its in the contract that they will refrain from any activities that may result in jubbly sag.

Me-three! Nor would I want a hairy chest anywhere near my coffee, thank you very much!

ETA: Just saw I'm an Ideal Rock now, yay!!!

 

[FrekeChild]

Hahahahahaha!!!!!

Oh man...That''s awesome. I don''t know that I''d be a regular patron, but I''d go at least once.

 

[monarch64]

I think it''s great! I wouldn''t go there myself, but I think it''s a great concept and hope the owners succeed.

LOL That same though crossed my mind.

 

[AprilBaby]

A chest hair in the coffee makes me gag.

 

[CDNinNYC]

Hahaha! You guys crack me up. I never even thought about the milk steamer!

I admit I''m not overly keen on having boobage with my morning coffee, but hey, if it helps business...

P.S. I can''t get over that 80 year old woman!

 

[Dancing Fire]

wonder if this coffee shop is on a main street with lots of windows ?

traffic jam anyone ?

 

[Diamond*Dana]

Good for them if it works for them...personally, I will stick with Starbucks

HA!! That''s hilarious! And a little gross, which I also appreciate!

I''d have to go to this place at least once. Pretty funny!

 

[pixie1216]

wow. i think i would rather work in a strip club, at least there is dim lighting and bouncers. i wonder what you do on your lunch break? sit in the back with the topless guys and have coffee? for myself, the embarrassment factor would be soooo huge working there! just very creepy overall! yuck.

in my state they have board of health rules regarding food service and nudity.
