Alpine Internet Cafe

If you are cold, walking on Main Street in Park City, the best way to warm up is with a hot tea from Alpine Internet Cafe. The staff was quick to help us and we felt welcome there. I had several teas to choose from and Mike ordered the Malted Milkball.The Malted Milkball at Alpine Internet Cafe He said it tasted like a melted Whopper you could drink and I was a little jealous.

The sign said that the bathrooms are for patrons only. Last summer, when Mike and I were riding our mountain bikes around town, that sign bugged me. We had come in there to buy cold water after our trek, but the sign made me feel a little guilty for wishing there was a bathroom. I held it until I got back to my hotel. This time when I saw the sign, I didn’t care. My feet were cold and I wanted to warm them up before we continued walking up Main Street. I was just grateful to be able to wait for the staff to make my tea.

Wireless Access at the Alpine Internet CafeCompared to Hawaii, the prices for computer access didn’t seem outrageous, but compared to a couple miles west in Salt Lake, they made me cringe. If you know you’re going to need a lot of time on the computer, then you might want to take a drive to any Barnes and Noble in Salt Lake City, because you’ll pay less there.

There were lines of computers waiting for us to check our email. Since I can check my email on my phone, I didn’t really try out their computers, but it felt enticing to see so many warm computers with people at them. There were also couches and tables filled with people on their laptops. It was a great way to glean the computer dudes from the ski bunnies. They both were wearing ski boots, but the computer dudes were warm in the Alpine Internet Cafe.
