What does the woman want to do?

W: Pardon me, sir. Do you know how to get to Mississippi Roast?
M: The coffee house? Yes, but it isn’t nearby. I think it’s about 15 blocks away. Just turn left at the intersection and keep going south. You’ll eventually see it on the right.
W: I didn’t realize it was so far away. I’m supposed to meet a friend there in half an hour. I should probably try and find a taxi.
M: Well, it’s difficult to get a taxi at this time of day. It might be faster to catch a bus, though. There’s a bus stop across the street.
