I'm not sure if this is really the place to be asking a question about style and fashion :)

A) Yes I would go to this if it was branded correctly and all my friends were going to it. I wouldn't go there regularly. For examples that are working in Portland, OR check out Voodoo Doughnuts and Saint Cupcake

B) You would need a bank loan, perhaps backed by SBA.
