Parisian Spirit, Vintage Paris, Coffee, Wine and Tea in Hollister, Missouri

Aug 30
While coffee and coffee shop roaming, I discovered a little piece of Paris in Missouri. In Hollister, Vintage Paris serves coffee, wine, tea and creature conforts. Prior stop on my coffee excursion was Classic Cafes ('The best of London's Vintage Formica Cafes'). Site is bit of a museum itself as it has not been updated since March 2010.
