I’ve always loved coffee. From drinking it at home with my parents to bouncing between every coffee shop in town during college, it was always part of my day. I studied there, watched football film, and played chess with friends. Coffee was never just a drink. It was a routine.
But no matter how many shops I walked into, none of them truly resonated with me.
I grew up playing sports, played football in college, and coached athletes after graduating. Sport was formative in my life. The lessons it teaches discipline, consistency, hard work, respect, accountability shaped who I am. Yet every coffee shop I visited felt disconnected from those values. There was no emphasis on structure, effort, or service. Nothing that reflected the way I believed daily life should be approached.
After a few years out of college, I decided to build the kind of coffee shop I wanted to walk into.
A place with energy. A place that blends daily routine with health and wellness. A place that encourages you to do more and keep going. Somewhere a young professional can take a meeting in the morning, then return later to recover after a Pilates or HIIT session.
That vision became Grand Coffee + Smoothies.
We paired great-tasting coffee with functional options like protein smoothies, protein coffee, and simple, purposeful food. We built an environment that feels alive and intentional. One that supports discipline without preaching it, and progress without pressure.
Grand Coffee exists to support your routine, fuel your movement, and encourage consistency in the everyday work that compounds over time.
