Our Story Begins at the River

Fate would have it that we both grow up in the same small town in West Virginia, where the convergence of three rivers shaped our shared love for the outdoors and the simple joys of life. The beauty of the sunrise over the river and the warmth of good food around a table were ingrained in our upbringing, as was a mutual calling to venture into the world of coffee.

Rich heeded this calling early on, dedicating over 25 years to the hospitality industry, with a specific focus on coffee for the past decade. A serendipitous introduction by a mutual close friend a few years back brought Rich and Sherry together inspiring them to collaborate on a dream-- a coffee shop for Cornelius that would offer a relaxed atmosphere alongside an inspired cup of coffee and modern comfort food so desperately missing from other coffee shops.

Our mission is to merge the richness of our individual experiences to craft a welcoming ambiance, serve inspired comfort food, and of course, provide top-notch locally roasted coffee, tea, and espresso drinks.
