Moto Java

This place is a coffee/motorcycle repair shop in San Francisco. I've seen some funny combination stores before and this one is pretty creative. Some of the more notables in memory have included video rental/doughnuts and ice cream/laundry mat to name two.

The products these proprietors make are sometimes do not mesh well with each other but the idea behind is sound - keeping the place open.

Rent is a fixed cost so if people only want to buy sandwiches at lunchtime, what can you sell in the morning and at night? This is where you see creativity shine.

There's nothing wrong with mixing two odd ball products. The only really issue is aesthetics (which is a big issue, I guess). Otherwise, what would be wrong with a Chinese Cuisine/Pet Store?
