FARGO-A Black Coffee and Waffle Bar will be the latest business to open in the former Metro Drug at 550 2nd Ave. N. in downtown Fargo.

The restaurant will serve, well, specialty waffles and coffee. Owner Brad Cimaglio said the Fargo location will also sell beer and wine and may one day serve mixed coffee and liquor drinks as well.

Cimaglio described the restaurant as fast/casual with counter service and table delivery.

All of the waffles are hand-curated, he said. For example, the "Fat Andrew" comes with peanut butter, powdered sugar, cinnamon, bananas and whipped cream. The "Naughty Waffle" comes with strawberries, bananas, blueberries, almond butter, granola and whipped cream.

They're also working on waffles that will be specific to Fargo, Cimaglio said.

Additional Black Coffee and Waffle Bars are located in Minneapolis and St. Paul.
