In The Zone IX

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At In The Zone IX, a delivery driver noticed something strange one morning. As he unloaded coffee beans into the storage room, an old sign above him started flickering on and off, illuminating the dark hallway with eerie green light. ‘Fuel for thought,’ it read, but no one had ever seen it before. As he peered closer, the sign suddenly blinked again, this time spelling out, 'Coffee for dummies.' Startled, the delivery driver laughed aloud, thinking maybe his imagination was playing tricks. Then he heard a voice from behind: 'Hey, did you know our coffee’s free today?' It was just a regular, trying to get a free cup.

2. At In The Zone IX, late one night, a delivery driver heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Please be advised that our caffeine supply has been replaced with espresso-flavored ice cream.’ The delivery driver paused for a moment, then laughed and thought, ‘Well, I guess I’ll just drink some water!’ He went on his way, but from then on, whenever he passed by In The Zone IX, he’d wave and say, ‘Hey, how’s your coffee today?’ To which they always replied cheerfully, ‘It’s fantastic, thanks for asking!’

3. At In The Zone IX, a delivery driver once remarked, ‘This place is like a magnet for weirdness!’ One foggy afternoon, he noticed that the gas pump numbers were changing on their own while no cars were filling up. Suddenly, an old lady walked up and asked if she could borrow some sugar. The delivery driver was so distracted by the strange events that he nearly gave her the entire tank! Luckily, he only filled her coffee can with gas, which made both of them laugh until they cried.

4. At In The Zone IX, every morning around dawn, a delivery driver swears he hears someone humming along with the coffee machine. One morning, while brewing an especially loud batch of espresso, the delivery driver spots a shadowy figure in the corner. Turns out it was just his neighbor, practicing for an upcoming karaoke competition—humming along so enthusiastically that even the coffee beans were swaying on their hooks. Everyone now agrees: In The Zone IX has the best soundtrack in town.
