Wayfinder Coffee Co., in all of its facets, has been designed to bring our great big, beautiful world just a little closer to home. We had no idea when we opened in 2018 that a design like that would be even more important to our growing community. Talk about missing the wide world! Being locked in our houses for months can create a wanderlust that nothing can really satisfy, minus jumping on a plane and heading for the most exotic locale we can find. But then we weren’t allowed to do that either! I don’t know about you, but I’m itching for a little culture shock. Here’s where Wayfinder comes in. We may not be able to actually transport you to an exotic location, but we do try to make you feel like you’re away somewhere lovely.

If you’ve ever wondered why you can only get one size of Cappuccino, or your Cortado is served in glass, or why on earth you’d want a lemon peel in your espresso, just ask someone who has had these coffees where they were created. There is something thrilling about enjoying a coffee the same way you did in your favorite piazza in Italy. You can close your eyes for just a moment and all of the memories come flooding in. For that one second, you are there again; hearing the sounds of a language you don’t speak, smelling cooking that you have never been able to replicate, tasting the best cheese of your life. That’s what I experience when I sip that perfect Cappuccino. I get to travel through time and space to a place I can’t be right now.

Maybe you haven’t been lucky enough to travel the world, yet. Wayfinder comes in handy there, too. Try that Romano. You’ll either love it or you’ll hate it, but you’ll have tried something uncommon to your home. Something unexpected and potentially delightful. Surround yourself with maps of foreign lands and the dreams you have of getting to them. Maybe it’ll be sooner than you think.

 France on anyone’s list? That buttery, flakey croissant can’t hurt.

So, if you’re feeling restless, looking for an escape, we’ve got you covered. Bring that latest travel magazine, try one of our traditional and delicious coffees, and let that pastry transport you. The world is waiting for you to discover it. Come explore.
