Ada’s newest restaurant near completion

By Amy Eddings

The long wait is almost over for the writers, dreamers, time-wasters and schemers who have been without a hang-out since Ada’s only coffee shop, Northern On Main, closed for good last May.  Its replacement, Cosi, is slated to open in early August, according to officials at Ohio Northern University.
