Ella

Our new barista keeps sleeping on the job and drinks up all the milk inventory🥛

Luckily for her, she’s suuuuper cute and can get away with anything! Luckily for us, we have plenty of coffee for those sleepless nights/days.

We are ecstatic to welcome Miss Laila Green to the family!

Our hearts (& hands) are totally full right now, so no coffee pop-ups planned on the horizon…but fortunately, there is no shortage of amazing coffee experiences here in Ann Arbor/Ypsi & beyond!

See ya soon(ish)☕️⚡️

Hey everybody!

We’re still here, I promise. We haven’t had a pop-up in a while, and that’s ok! Other things have been taking priority recently... Work, leisure, picking apples & making cider, long walks with Ella, Michigan football, misc. adventures, tacos, basically life in general…

Pop-up coming soon…maybe…maybe not so soon….but when that time comes again, we’ll be ready with a big ol’ smile to welcome you and prepare you whatever your heart desires 💚☕️

In the meantime…we’re still open to event inquires.

See ya soon!

This weekend we have the perfect escape or side quest away from all of the busyness that is the Ann Arbor Art Fair.

We’re exited to be setting up for their annual Make-A-Tile & More event. We’ll be slingin’ coffee from 10-1pm and Motawi Tileworks will be hosting awesome activities until 3pm. No registration required!

The event includes outdoor tile-making and raku tile-firing workshops and an indoor staff art sale.

You can carve your very own Turquoise-glazed tile with help from the Motawi experts. Check out the staff art sale that will feature locally made ceramics, jewelry, woodwork, mixed-media works, and so much more…and not to mention you can also shop the Motawi gallery and boneyard.

Interactive & creative fun for the whole family!! (Plus, you won’t almost lose your mind trying to find a place to park downtown)

Meet the team!

In case we haven’t had the pleasure of meeting you in person at one of the pop-ups yet, I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce ourselves, the crew behind Ella…

First up, is me, Jeff (blue beanie).
Born & raised in Ann Arbor…spent a few years down in south Florida then headed west to Los Angeles for the next 13 years working in just about every industry there is.

Next up, the brains of the operation, Megan (beautiful smile). Born & raised in Fort Washington, Maryland (PG County!). Graduated from the other U of M (Maryland - Go Terps) then headed out west to Southern California for the next 13 years excelling as a creative designer & marketer manager…you probably have bought or seen products that she designed the packaging for.

We met, fell in love, and then shortly after hit the wall with living in expensive Los Angeles and decided to move to Michigan so we both could be closer to family and hopefully get ourselves a house to call home. Well, we got the house…and then we got a dog to go along with it.

Ella - half basset hound, half mystery, 100% sweet girl. Always down for an adventure, a nap, or a belly scratch. She allows us to use her name for the business in exchange for grilled salmon and chicken dinners.

Nice to meet you, hope to see ya soon! ☕️⚡️

is like our home away from home and we’re psyched to be setting shop back up there this weekend!

The rain and gloom today is only setting us up for a sunny beautiful Saturday full of bike rides, farmers markets, fresh pasta, kayak runs, cold brew coffees, back yard grilling, and smiles all around.

Hope to see ya there!
☕️⚡️😎

This Saturday we’re excited to be setting up at everybody’s favorite local month long festival…the ! I grew up going to the festival every year, so it’s very cool to be a part of it.

To make things even more exciting, it’s Ann Arbor’s A2 Zero Week which promotes and celebrates all things sustainable and innovative!

We are super excited to be teaming up with who will be providing us with ☀️solar energy to power our ☕️espresso machine. So cool!! If there’s one thing I like more than espresso, it’s solar powered espresso! They’ll be bringing along some of their awesome cargo bikes for everybody to check out too!

To make sure we can serve as many people as possible, we’ll be offering a simple menu of regular & decaf espresso only. Sustainability and solar power are the stars of the show here. If you’re like me and start to get sleepy around 7pm, a shot of espresso in the early evening is probably exactly what you need to keep your Saturday night going. Plus, you definitely won’t want to miss .merritt.music who will all be rocking the stage that night.

We’ll be located inside The Annex tent which will be full of games for adults, interactive creativity stations, and exhibits by local A2 Zero collaborators showcasing all kinds of cool tech innovations, environmental adaptations, and real-world solutions to inspire climate action. The plan is to start slingin’ shots at 5pm…oh, and they’re free! So stop by, check everything out, say hi, and grab an espresso if you want one.

We hope to see you there!
