PJs Coffee in Destin. Yay or Nay

Depends on the rent. You gotta sell a shite load of coffee to pay rent in Destin.

It is a Louisiana based company, and half of LA goes to Destin April-September, so yes it has a shot to make it

You might think so, but I've lived here since 78 and in my experience most folks want something different than what they get at home.

Thus, the failure of Commander's Palace and some other LA-specific offerings. There aren't a ton of local coffee spots v chains here, but there's enough that you'll have to survive the offseason and that's where the locals will prevail.

Do you think people go to other cities/states/countries they are visiting just to eat they are used to eating back home?

If I remember correctly, they opened at a very bad time when the economy went to shite.

You ask this question as if you’ve never met an average person from Louisiana.

I almost opened one, but a current owner of several stores told me to stay away. You can never beat Starbucks and you need several stores to make solid money.

Yes. A lot of people from Louisiana go there and that alone should support it

Their coffee is not good and expensive.

Compared to which coffee places?

My favorite is CC’s. Pj’s does have a really turkey sausage biscuit though.
