Eclectic Vibes

Bold Bean - Riverside is a few minutes walk from Five-Points, but is worth the walk or drive. With its speckled concrete floors, exposed brick and wood paneling this a great location to sit and catch up with friends. The sitting options include a bar that overlooks the street, steel tables and chairs and a bar area with stools. The front of the shop has tall windows that brighten up the space, adding to the open, airy floor plan, while the industrial style light fixtures give this space a more masculine feeling. 

Along with Bold Bean’s coffee and tea options they offer beer, and at this location there is a brewery that can be viewed from the main part of the coffee shop through windows. The shop also offers realism artwork for sale on the walls. If you are looking for a place to study, I would not recommend this coffee shop because of the lack of outlets for you devices (e.g. laptop, tablet, cell phone). 

For the lesson in week 6, my focus for this entry was on editing for bias. Bold Bean - Riverside is known for being represented by particular group of people, so it was hard to not write about it. To keep the bias of this “group designation”, I instead focused on the building itself as well as the other options this coffee shop has (Einsohn 405). From editing the exercise for this week, I learned that editing for bias is easy for some sentences, while very difficult for others. This goes for writing a blog without bias since I would not have thought about how my entries could be biased. However, this entry in particular has taught me to look at the bigger picture of the entry, and not certain details that could potentially be insensitive.
