The facts about Barista Fest

Almost a thousand attendees

That’s how many people answered the call and came to our coffee shop for Barista Fest! Seriously, we were totally amazed! You all came to discover and rediscover our coffee throughout the day, and we were blessed to be able to share this experience with the coffee lovers that share our passion!


Exclusive: Stone Machines!

During Barista Fest, we announced that we would be adding our very first Stone brand machine to our range of residential machines in the coming weeks! This high-quality espresso machine is designed for small spaces, and with its tiny footprint, can be tucked into any size kitchen to provide commercial-quality espressos right at home!


Our Barista Oat Beverage

Alex also introduced our brand-new Barista Oat Beverage! It was launched online on October 5th, 2022! You can order it now, or come and try it in person at our coffee shop!
