Laconia certainly has its problems but for the last few years some of my family members take a daily trip to the Wayfarer Coffee Roasters shop on Main St. when we're at the lake. It's a very popular spot in the heart of downtown Laconia and seems to be doing very well. It's always been busy when I've been there and it has a lot of young and hip customers. They even sometimes have musical entertainment for the coffee drinkers.

When we went there for coffee we also walked up and down Main St. and visited a few shops. There seems to be more people and activity now than in the past. Maybe a few more popular businesses there would help turn Laconia in the right direction.
