The new hot spot for local java addicts and live music enthusiasts in Sacramento is the True Love Coffee House, a discreet cafe set inside an old Victorian-style house in midtown Sacramento. Located at 2406 J St., this live music venue brings in a variety of people. Perhaps what makes this coffee house so unique is the positive vibe that permeates the cafe, and the comfortable ambiance it provides. .

             I ventured into the True Love Coffee House twice, once on a Thursday night around 9 p.m., and again on a Saturday night around 10 p.m. Both times I paid a $6 cover and walked straight into a long line of coffee fans that stretched from the counter all the way to the front door. When I asked what the dress code was the worker there said anything goes, "as long as you wear clothes." Since you have to purchase something in order to hang out, I waited in the line. .

             There are many things to see throughout the house. Various couches, tables, and chairs are set up inside; some spread out into a more open space, while others sit in secluded corners; this is one place where you cannot say that there is nothing to do. Not only are there live bands performing, but there"s also a shelf full of board games available to play with friends while enjoying a drink. .

             At other couches, you may find yourself playing with the magnetic poetry board on the table or coloring a picture with the crayons and papers provided. If you are an art fan, scan the walls of the cafe to find exclusive paintings and art sculptures for sale. Each time I went they had different art on the walls. For true fans of the coffee house, there is merchandise for sale as well, such as "True Love" tank tops, g-strings, mechanic shirts, and other paraphernalia. .

             The menu has quite an assortment of pastries, coffees, teas and sodas. I tried the Peanut Butter Mocha the first time I went, which was absolutely delicious. It was hot, not too strong, and the peanut butter in it tasted amazing.
