CAFFEINE AND MORE: Eichardt's is the de facto Place to Go in Sandpoint, and deservedly so. Like most Sandpoint businesses it ebbs and flows with the tourist seasons, but it manages to pull off being a coffee shop, restaurant, and bar equally well, so it maintains a steady regular patronage year round.

FRIDAY'S FORECAST: Partly cloudy, highs in the mid 60's.
