There were plenty of treats, and thankfully no tricks, as Mocha Mott's, the long-time coffee house at the bottom of Circuit avenue in Oak Bluffs, reopened their doors after a burst pipe closed them down in February. Smiles and "glad to be backs" were in abundance as regulars found their tables again, baristas and bakers got back to the job they love, and old friends reaquainted themselves.
