Opening a mom-and-pop coffeehouse is a perilous business to begin with. Now, the recession has officially begun. Here's how one independent (OK, not quite a mom-and-pop) has weathered the storm so far. Ironically, they're called Phoenix Coffee, but they're in Cleveland. Maybe people in Cleveland like to imagine they're in Phoenix, if only for a little while.



Right on, Phoenix Coffee! Cleveland should be proud.
