It is nicer inside, but not that different. The menu is still the same style, baked goods, some breakfast sandwiches, soups, sandwiches, and the ice cream. There's a wider variety of food. I am not sure if it is "yuppified," it still feels like a nice independent coffee shop. People work there all day and they don't bother you. The prices have gone up a lot, but, the food is really good.
Since I moved from Boxborough to Concord and stopped teaching in Hudson, I mostly go there when i am on a ride, or after a hike/snowshoe in the Flag Hill Conservation land, as it's not on my way to work anymore. But, I still prefer it to the cafes in Concord center.
