Dear Friends.
We have some news to share. It is with sadness to inform you that our 5th Avenue coffee shop location will be closing on February 3rd, 2023. Our lease is up in February and our landlord is going in a different direction that does not include Appalachian Coffee Company.
Know that we are actively looking for other options to move to a new location. At this time, we do not have any details to share but hopefully we can in the near future. Our online store will remain open, and we will continue to supply our many vendors throughout the area.
I cannot stress enough how proud and grateful I am to the Appalachian Coffee staff. Over the next month please join me in thanking them for their hard work, love for our customers, and desire to create an atmosphere where all are welcomed and feel at home. These wonderful people not only helped us make it through the pandemic but enabled us to thrive once we got through it. Our business was healthier post-COVID than ever before, and it is all because of our talented, joyful, and hardworking staff.
I also am grateful for our wonderful customers. Our goal was to create a gathering place where stories were told, special moments were shared, and friendships grew over a great cup of coffee. I think we did that together. Thank you. This coffee shop was a dream come true.
So….what now?
We hope to find a new home for Appalachian Coffee and we are actively searching and looking for new spaces. We hope to be able to announce to the public in the near future what our options are. But for now, this chapter in Appalachian Coffee is ending and we have faith that a new and wonderful home awaits. I look forward to what God has in store for us and the rest of the Appalachian Coffee family.
