Patterson Perk was also getting robbed like once a month leading up to them closing. It was at least 4 or 5 times, but I want to say it was more, Bmore Licks and them both went cashless because of it.

On another note, I live very close to them, and would usually walk much further for better coffee and food.

I think it's due to having great advocacy for public transit and bikes, which we should celebrate. Complete streets certainly haven't been applied consistently, but it is on our books, and I bet those other metro areas don't have anything like that implemented.

Could definitely do better, but I'm a little surprised at how well we stack up already. I'm not intimately familiar with many of these places, but I wouldn't have guessed we were ahead of cities like Tampa, Denver, Austin, etc.

Reply to comment by Interstate8 in Donate Empty Pill Bottles? by akt1234

Agreed! I want to try and find an alternative before putting it in the recycling bin. I've already used as many as I can for things around the house. Seems like with so many people getting pill bottles there should be a good way to reuse them

I know you asked about empty pill bottles but just a heads up, the Highlandtown Walgreens on Eastern has a prescription drug dropoff kiosk if you have unwanted/expired medication.

That’s how I feel about most spots in the city.

I feel like Chuck’s Trading Post is the only place with a decent sandwich and coffee at a reasonable price.

But all the other spots are either as you described, or they’re mediocre overpriced stuff that’s unnecessarily overthought, like Artifact Coffee or Good Neighbor
