Hey everyone, As we discussed earlier this week, our time at 80 West will be coming to an end on February 12th. We are excited for the move but we have gotten a lot of questions about where our customers can get their coffee while we are closed? There are several options to turn to but our favorite is using the French press. The French press is a brewing device that you can use at home, in the office, camping, and nearly anywhere that you can find hot water.

Hey everyone! February is quickly approaching and it is a pretty damn big month for us as we will be moving to our new location at 62 E Michigan Ave. When we started two summers ago in the cargo units on Hambly and McCambly we couldn’t have imagined how quickly we would be able to move.

If you didn’t watch our video the other day we spoke about helping keep each other accountable for our new goals. It can be tough sledding trying to go through them alone, so share your goals with close friends so they can encourage and support you! Today I just wanted to share an alternative use for coffee other than brewing and drinking it. Last year we had the opportunity to partner with Territorial Brewing Company on a coffee beer! Hard Bock Cafe, as you could imagine, is...
