I love Maude's café. IT's located right across Starbuck's on downtown Gainesville, and it certainly has a personality that the more mainstream national chain lacks. The variety of coffees is excellent. The desserts are outstanding. Now they have added sandwiches and salads that are worth trying. If it's not too hot outside, it's an excellent place to hang out with friends. You can ask for board games, and spend hours playing with friends. Weekend nights a very good jazz band plays there. Definetily a must in Gainesville!!!

I love Prime Rib too! Joe's Place offers it daily and it's cheaper on Sundays. They also have sirloins, ny strips and delmonicos. My wife had a delmonico- cooked perfectly. They have the best broccoli in town. I know that sounds weird but it is fresh, not frozen. Sweet potato fries were good too. Servers are friendly and really care about the place.

It really is very simple. You call the number, which is clearly listed on the web page. A person answers and gives you an appointment for the day of or the day after. She sounds a little harsh at times because I think she is really busy. She told me they stop taking appointments at 7:30pm. I found Dr. Galligo there, who is really nice and is dealing not only with my chronic pain issues, but my blood pressure, thyroid and hormone imbalance. I like him for a regular family practice physician. I never have to wait long either.

ok, so the prices can be a little steep, but the pizza is amazing. these people really know how to throw pepperonis on a plate! (term / figure of speech) well, if you have been a local for a while here in G-Vil. then you will always recognize the awesome comercials for leonardos haahhaha . the dude that we know as "leonardo" dancing a little and singing something about leonardos.. leonardos pizza. the comercials are great. but anyway. if you like the comercials, then come here, because its great to see these pizza makers in action with their good sense of humor and strong sense of taste.

The most enjoyable coffee shop i have been to in quite some time. The workers are always full of personality and friendly, the atmosphere is not too trendy, not to mention the computers and wireless internet are a huge plus. I'd recommend it as a Study Place for the many students in the area. OH, and the coffee is fabulous, never watery and not burnt tasting like star bucks, and their prices are so reasonable, i always tip (for all the other reasons as well.) The owners are actively involved in the Business, often working behind the counter.

I was able to be seen on a Friday. I thought dentists don't work fridays. The hygienist was great and the doctor was more interested in me and my mouth then my checkbook.

Scissors can do everything, and they're just that good at it! I always get my cut there as well as highlights, coloring, and spiral perms. I never walked out disappointed. The price isn't too bad considering the quality of the service and the warm personality of the staff. My haircut preference is a bit complex, but they handle it perfectly! They also take the time to style however you want it. I also get eyebrows done whenever I'm too lazy to do them myself. They're great at that too.
I had my first highlighting there. I was curious about the chemicals and the process, but the staff was very informative on my questions without "endorsing." The highlights came out lovely, and got several compliments from my friends. They are the ONLY salon that I have been to that has a staff that does not force you to buy their hair products.
I love this place and will continue going here as long as I live in Gainesville.

I had to go to nearby Joann Fabric and happened to stop in this store because it looked fun and it was! There were so many wonderful books. I am in love with their Florida Books section. Then they had cards I have never seen before, they were very unique and artistic. I have to admit I went a little crazy with the beauty products. It was money well spent my skin looks and smells terrific. I had never heard of Thymes before, so it is a great place to get great products. It was fun to shop there I was probably in there for two hours. So many many wonderful things. I can't wait for my friend's birthdays and Christmas. I know I can get them something special and different with a beautiful card to match. This is my new favorite place to go!
PROS: Fun uncommon gifts, great books, great prices on books.
CONS: I found it too easy to break my budget in there!(but that's my problem)
