Feels like the Greatest Generation

   The coffee house serves much more than just coffee and ice cream. The menu includes sandwiches named after the era's well-known personalities or events, such as the Roosevelt Roast Beef or the Pin Up Gal special. Enjoy Rosie the Riveter soups of the day or a Veterans Salad. Ice cream treats include the Shadow, a chocolate lover's delight or the U-Boat float. There are fresh-baked items— cinnamon rolls, cookies, and sweet breads every day that complement your favorite espresso drink, such as a white mocha latte topped with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles.

   Judy's been collecting World War II memorabilia for several years and now shares them with the public. Look for her autographed pictures of many 1940s movie stars and an authentic World War II era helmet. The cheerful yellow walls with green and red trim were inspired by the cookie tin artwork on the walls; this, along with the big band music, lets customers feel as if they've stepped back in time. Ironically, the Gutierrez's discovered that this building once housed the USO during the 40s and are currently searching for photographs of the period to display. Judy and Michael wish to thank their guests for making the Home Front a favorite place to dine and shop. Stop by and step back in time. The Home Front is open 7 days a week, Monday - Friday from 8am to 7pm Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 5pm.
