Crown Street turns 8 in August! Can you believe it? Eight years fueling our Jamestown community! This year has been filled with making what we have even better. When Nick and I bought Crown over two years ago, we knew there were many things we wanted to keep the same, but also things we wanted to make our own.
I think a big part of running a business is appreciating what you have. There is always an opportunity to expand, to grow, to do something new. Those times will come, but in the meantime, we continue to refine what we have, make our processes better, treat our staff well, and serve our community.
We continue to grow our wholesale, working with current and new customers doing some really exciting things. Sometimes people come in and are excited to learn we roast our own coffee beans, and we want more people to know that! We offer subscriptions and have 2-pound and even 5-pound bags of coffee, all locally roasted.
We are always doing important work internally, but hope you’ll see it outwardly, with a thriving staff, great hospitality, exciting offers, and the same consistency day in and day out. I think if we could encapsulate the year in one quote, it would be this:
“The secret to having it all is knowing you already do.”
