1 Year Anniversary!


Wow! I cannot believe 1 year ago today we were opening Coffee Buzz's doors for the first time. This year has been completely amazing, challenging, gratifying, stressful, frustrating, exciting and exhausting! It was a real labor of love getting this place ready and opened.







We've had some amazing days, we've had some horrible days, we have some unbelievable regular customers and we've had some pretty terrible customers, we've been robbed, we've come back from being robbed.




Everyone says your first year of business is the hardest, so I'm glad we've got that under our belt and can move on to a super successful year 2!


Also, thank you SO much to everyone who voted for Bailey! She made the cut! The contest is now down to 50 from 1,000 dogs!!!

The second round voting is all this week so PRETTY please vote for her here:
