Sold... only issue is when I have time to get in there when you're open.

Catan's a good game (there's a reason it seems to be the gold standard), but it depends on who's playing. It can get really tense if the people who are into it are highly competitive. When I go back home, I basically cannot play it if both of my Cousins (brothers) are playing.
Ticket to Ride (or TTR Europe) are good gateway games. Catan's a better game on the whole, but those two are more accessible.
