About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when GoLo’s neon sign flickered on, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every night, for exactly three minutes, the gas pump numbers rolled back to zero. Curious, he told no one but his dog. The next day, as the clock struck midnight, the whole neighborhood gathered around, watching intently. When the pumps reset, everyone burst into laughter—except the delivery driver, who realized his dog had been pressing the reset button all along.

2. At dawn, when GoLo's coffee machines hummed to life, a neighborhood cat began appearing in the kitchen, helping itself to fresh pastries. One morning, a delivery driver noticed the cat and joked, ‘Hey, you’re faster than our espresso machine!’ The cat ignored him but then, just as he was leaving, it stole his cap and ran out the door, leaving everyone laughing. Since then, no one minds if the cat hangs around—after all, it’s the only employee who never takes a break.

3. At closing time, when GoLo’s staff started packing up for the night, they heard an unfamiliar voice over the intercom: ‘Last one out, please turn off the stars.’ Curious, a delivery driver asked aloud, ‘Who turned out the stars?’ A quiet voice replied from the shadows: ‘I did. And I’m never turning them on again.’ The next morning, GoLo found its ceiling festooned with hundreds of tiny, unlit LEDs.

4. At breakfast time, when GoLo’s cash register chimed cheerfully, an old lady approached the counter with an unusual request: she asked for her usual order—extra strong coffee and a croissant—but then added, ‘And could you please wrap it in brown paper like my late husband used to do?’ The barista smiled and nodded, wrapping the croissant carefully as he remembered his own grandfather doing something similar. Just as he was finishing, a delivery driver rushed in, yelling, 'Hey, did anyone see a stray piece of brown paper flying out?' Turning around, everyone saw the old lady waving goodbye from outside, her face beaming, still holding her wrapped treat.
