COFFEE CART OPENS FRIDAY, MAY 9th

We love coffee. We roast it fresh every week in small batches with fair-trade, organic beans. For the past five years we’ve developed a cult following with our customers. Cults are cool but it’s time to bring it to the masses. GATO AS RELIGION — can we get an amen? We’re serving espresso drinks (two different beans daily), pour-overs, burritos and pastries. Come check out our little cart that’s big on spirit.

We support non-profits with our Buck-a-Bag program.
We thought, maybe it’d be nice for people to know that when they pay for a pound of excellent coffee, part of their hard-earned money goes out into the world to do good things. Even quality organic coffee, like anything sold and bought, costs the planet. What if we gave a buck a bag to environmental and social causes? Learn more about Buck-a-Bag at our BUCK-A-BAG page.
