Our Story

We’re proud to be a part of Glen Rose and honored to serve the people who make this community so special. Every day, we make it a point to be a light of Christ — loving and serving our customers and staff the way Jesus calls us to. We’re only here because of Him, and we’re so grateful for the opportunity to walk this journey with all of you.
Come in, grab a seat, and stay a while — you’re always welcome here. Our atmosphere is eclectic and boho, creating a warm and inviting space for everyone. As a Christian-owned establishment, our heart is to spread joy, encouragement, and maybe a little hope... one cup at a time. Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
With much love,
