It's about community.
The owner, Dina DiNucci, has been a long time resident and community advocate in Rockwood. Her goal was to open a community space in Rockwood and offer something positive to the surrounding community. Our community had no local coffee shops, so that was easy. But, what kind of food do you offer in a neighborhood rich in cultural diversity?
Crepes, palacinkas, blinis (to name a few).
The basic crepe is familiar to people from so many cultures. You can be reminded of home just by the ingredients you choose to add to your crepe.
What is a crepe?
Calling it a thin pancake just doesn’t describe this delicacy! Pancakes are these things that sit like lead in your stomach and only taste good with syrup! Alas, in France, crepe translates to “pancake.” A crepe is a thin wrap that can be filled with various ingredients – and all of them taste good – as breakfast, lunch, dinner, or sweet fillings can be used for dessert. You can watch them being made at the service area for a better idea of the size and method. If you doubt you will like them, we are willing to bet that once you taste them you will change your mind!
Why did we call it Park Place?
Look at the windows to the South and you will see Vance Park. This park is an area that once had a reputation for problems. If you look in the park now, you will see disk golfers, children playing, an imaginative children’s garden with butterfly pavilions behind you. It’s another positive aspect of a community whose positive qualities must be highlighted. So, if you want to find Park Place Coffee, it is next to the park, of course!
