About Me:
I had 27 years retail experience in the Grocery industry prior to opening my coffee house. I am married and have one son and 2 step sons. I could not have gone through the last 2 years with a new business with out the support of my wonderful husband. I love what I do and I love what I serve!
About My Company:
Old Town Battle Grounds is located in a 1930's home that has been converted. We sit right on Main Street in a smallish town in South West Washington. Our town is growing very quickly (16,000 pop now) and we are located in what is considered the "Older" part of town. Community support has been great! We always strive to serve the highest quality product we can and our customers love us for that.
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
Free Coffee... oh wait, I'm the owner... it's not free!!

Do you offer ice cream in your shop? We're near the beach and this year I'm considering adding ice cream during the summer for the non-coffee customers. Your thoughts????

Even if you're new at it, remember corporate life was also new to you at some point, but this time you're in control. And if you mess up, just fix it the next time. Julianne

Yes Diane, the fish was a moment of inspiration in a cloud and rainy day in one of the store that I work, in a mall with the ceiling of glass; so I was trying to do something different then, it came to me, and I don't know if anyone had tried it before, But my costumers liked a lot, ( - crazy people, coffee with fish!?)
