DOLLAR wednesdays !






For those of you "HUBBERS" who don't know, Wednesday's are DOLLAR SHOT DAYS if you ride your whip ( thats your bike MAN ! ) to the HUB !! Alot of you are starting to catch on, and we are seeing more and more bikes line up outside the HUB gates every Wednesday ! So start riding that whip of yours to the hub on Wednesdays and get on some of that BOSS espresso (1 DOLLAR ) or even better- try a shot of our SINGLE ORIGIN espresso for 2 bucks ! ! This week's Single Origin is the Brazil Daterra Monte Cristo which is DECADENT bakers chocolate with hints of florals behind each sip ! Its got these crazy low bass notes that mix in with some light twinkling fruit hits . It will blow your mind, And yes - its straight from the Amazon ya'll !

so giddy up kiddo's - Ride your bike, get a work out in the cold and save the environment ! You'll be glad you did !!

we love you!

Making friends and slinging straight PUCKS at the HUB !

AMARO GAYO MILL = GOOD COFFEE AT THE HUB











(Photos from the Amaro Gayo coffee mill in Sidamo, Ethiopia)

sipping the BOSS Espresso on a Saturday at the HUB, and would you look at the pucks J DUB was slinging .....
Not to mention that the GLORIOUSLY balanced and thickly sweet , straight up SIDAMO Berried Ethiopian Amaro Gayo is back in the house ! taste like sweet berries and heavy cream... oh lawd!
We get a nice blueberry profile behind each sip. Come in and try one , tell us what you think !

We also had the privilege of meeting Wille (Vee-ley) who is the Owner and Roaster of HEART Coffee and Roasting. He brought in a GREAT single origin Ethiopia Mordecofe Espresso, we pulled a couple of shots with it and it truly brought the house down !
check their new place out in Portland on East Burnside if your up there. Its great to meet other coffee enthusiasts and Roasters who actually know about their coffees, care about how its prepared and make coffee not only a daily ritual but a mission !
