The local Alton, Illinois chapter of the Coffee Party was told to meet elsewhere after they scheduled a Muslim Speaker for a September 11 meeting. They told the owner of the coffee shop that they were non-political and non-religious. He told them to get lost.

But, but, I thought the seeds of the Socialist struggle were sown in coffee shops...
Then, too, gotta make a profit.

Alton is a nice little Illinois river town right across the Mississippi from St. Louis. It's home to one of the greatest bars on Earth, Fast Eddies Bon Air.
Even though, IIRC, it's fairly reliably Blue they're still pretty conservative down there.

Start adding a drop of pig lard to every pot of coffee. Advertise it. End of Islam/Muslim issue.

It's home to one of the greatest bars on Earth, Fast Eddies Bon Air. Please elaborate. It's road-trip season.

Fast Eddies Bon Air is located in downtown Alton IL along the beautifully scenic Great River Road in Illinois. Fast Eddies opened in the 1970's and haven't raised the price on any food item since. A bombing good 1/2 pound cheeseburger will set you back about 99 cents IIRC.
Peel and eat shrimp are 29 cents. If you get there, try the Big Elwood.
They have live music daily, the beer is cold, and the staff very friendly.

Coffee Party as a concept is historically ignorant. The tea party dumped the tea and the USA started drinking coffee as a matter of national defiance to the king.
I am gratified these coffee house did this.
It is OBVIOUS they are very political and only hide as a-political.

I notice the video is used to trash the owner by insinuating he will not serve Muslims like Blacks were not served in Southern states during the 50's and early 60's.
The leftie lies by insinuation, and the TV reporter lets him get away with it.
The coffee shop will serve anyone, including Muslims and Blacks.
