"The best band from Vic is Meatlocker 7, but I don't think the nutcase from the article is in that band either. They only tend to get naked at the CoffeeMaxx." - Tue, 31 May 2005 7:29pm

Spent many a bleary eyed and wasted moment in good old Coffee Mac's . For a coffee and aboot 100 of those creamo thingies ,It's very sad really ! lol !

Hey man when you're living on the streets there's not to many places you can sit in the wee hours ,in the warmth .

well there was Scotts.... oh and The maple leaf... oh and the Night and Day(Day and night ?) ! I'm in'um till they kick my sorry ass out !! - Thu, 2 Jun 2005 8:50pm

wow, I can remember a million stories coming out of Coffee Mac's... I basically grew up there... which probably explains why coffee is my personal version of heroin...

In fact, my first real job was as dishwasher on the graveyard shift about 12 or 13 years ago...

And I totally agree to it being a Victoria landmark... what can you say about a restaurant that NEVER closed it's doors for over 50 years?... They stayed open during power outages, fires, robberies [so many in fact they put a steel cage around the cashier]... and who can forget the regular 2am influx of bikers coming over from the Brass Rail across the street...

Damn I miss that place

I too worked T "Coffee Macs" 11 years ago as a waitress. I was 17 and it was my first and last waitressing job. It cured me for life. - Sat, 17 Sep 2005 3:42pm
