We, at SALENTO, feel there is a need for comfortable, clean and cozy “gathering places” for people wanting to talk or just mingle with others. In the last few years many businesses have positioned themselves as coffee or tea selling establishments and in the process have somehow become the “gathering place” for many. Nonetheless, their roots and original concepts were to sell coffee and or tea with a very limited number of other beverages and food alternatives. “Gathering” became and is a mere byproduct not the core of the customer experience.
