Some Steamed by Spokane ‘Sexpresso’ Stand

Several espresso stands with provocatively dressed employees have opened in the City of Spokane, including a few stands where baristas cover their breasts with little more than stickers. Big Shots Espresso, a bright pink kiosk on the corner of Francis and Lidgerwood, took the hot coffee trend one step further with “Topless Tuesdays.”

And it’s got one group of people especially steamed.  Emily Swenson’s morning jolt is not from her cup of coffee, but the woman who serve it at the espresso stand just below her window.  “I see that. The ladies are not dressed. I think it’s nasty,” she pointed out of her third-floor apartment window to the women in the kiosk below. “I have kids and I don’t like it cause they can see that.”

At Big Shots espresso, the women walk the line between skim milk and skimpy outfits. The line is often several cars long with customers eager for a jolt of java.  The girls at the stand have long-since shown off lingerie, but recently they touted a new trend “Topless Tuesdays,” women wearing nothing more than panties and pasties.  Read more and watch video here .
