Bring your dog (aka emotional support animal) to the cafe and try our selections of single origins or house blends. Hear about the origins of our coffee, and we want to hear the origin stories of your furry friend. And yes, we will have the best puppucinnos.

A coffee tasting of our select coffees from throughout the world. We will provide a “Coffee 101” handout and a raffle for a coffee and accessories basket.

Board games and coffee day where our specialty dragon-themed drinks are on full display. Table fee waived for the day.

A reading where local writers and artists who are also booksellers and baristas/work in coffee can share their work. There will be a drink special for the week and highlighted during the event.

We will be offering tastings of our house roast, decaf, nitro cold brew, and chai lattes. We are also doing a coffee beer collaboration with our neighbors at Fermata Brewing. We will be brewing a pumpkin brown ale with MCCo Roast. This will also be available as part of the tasting experience.
