Brugger’s is not a big chain, but it is still not local.  At one time half of this space housed a small restaurant called Classe Cafe, with artwork from local artists up on the walls.  This was a place that I could walk to in the morning have eggs.  There is now another breakfast place in town, The Lone Wolf where I can go, that is doing very well, but it feels less like my Amherst to have these locations filled with chain stores.
