This is awesome! I live in Avalon Towers and this will be a welcome addition to grab a sandwich or bakery item that is NOT Starbucks (which I also enjoy).

Great news! I’ll be waiting for their cafe to open. They serve healthy delicious food in a hip, urban atmosphere.

Wonder what space they are moving into.

@squarepetcare: I was wondering that myself. From what I can picture, there isn’t any free space next to University Bookstore.

@Vincent,
I was just at Zeek’s on Wednesday and can’t recall any space either. Maybe I’ll walk over for the heck of it and find the signs.

I drove past there yesterday, and the bakery looks like it will be inside the bookstore, rather than have its own entrance door.

This should help sales at the Bookstore.
