"Started as a coffee cart in 2018 by co-owners Joel Norman and his brother Charles with friends Tommy Keough and Ben Shaum, this coffee operation emphasizes an interactive, community-minded approach: Joel runs day-to-day service, Shaum handles roasting, and Keough designs the branding. After operating as a coffee counter inside the now-shuttered Jim Adams Farm and Table on Bolton Road and selling beans to other shops, the team opened a new coffee bar inside a century-old home in East Atlanta Village while renovations continue on their original Bolton Road location. The menu features classic coffee and tea drinks, grab-and-go pastries, and inventive signature beverages — including a vegan horchata cold-brew named for Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig and an iced honey-lime hibiscus-berry tea called “Run the Jewels” — with limited temporary hours as the new spot gets established and plans for expanded permanent hours." - Beth McKibben
