Grandview Topless Coffee Shop burns down
UPDATE: The Boston Herald says it was arson:
It appears at least one person felt a topless coffee shop in Maine was too hot. Fire officials say a blaze that destroyed the Grand View Topless Coffee Shop in Vassalboro at about 1 a.m. today was set by an arsonist.
Donald Crabtree thought a topless coffee and doughnut store was just the way for a merchant to fight the recession, so he opened the Grandview Topless Coffee Shop in Vassalboro, Maine, a few months ago. The place drew legions, but last night it burned down, according to the Boston Globe.
No word yet on suspected arson, but apparently not all the good Mainers were happy about the Grandview's dress code. Last month a state trooper was called to the Grandview after one of the waitresses went outside in her uniform, according to AP. The Vassalboro town fathers/mothers are scheduled to vote on an ordinance regulating topless restaurants on Monday.

I'll bet the waitress went outside for a smoke break. Just one more reason to quit...

It sounds as though the waitresses were just too "hot"

Not sad to see it go. I grew up around there and it is such a quaint little down, why turn it in to hooker-ville? Really, a topless coffee shop? In little Vassalboro Maine? Who saw that failing? *raises hand*

I am that guy that worked at the doughnut shop and if your wondering if so much about what I serve a doughnut its your face, my dough from my nut on your face bitches. You people have nothing better to do than complain about a fun time. And I got paid and I got laid, what better job do you have going for you? Maybe you'd rather go to mcdonalds for your coffee its organic and mass produced just like assholes like yourself. go look at your body in the mirror if you want to see something to complain about. And these days Im back doing stonework but don't knock a good thing just because its HARD work for some and too easy to be a whinner.
