Given the choice, I ALWAYS choose the mom and pop shop over a chain, especially restaurants. In my town, we are lucky enough to have a coffee shop run by a couple who roast their own coffee. We also have a kick ass pizza joint, and I eat there about once a week. I haven't had a Domino's or Pizza hut pizza in over a year.
The store I work in is privately owned, even though it's in the mall with Pac Sun and Aeropostale. The only thing we don't have here is a locally owned bookstore. They seem to be closing all over.
