Buying gourmet coffee in Philadelphia just got easier! If you remember back in June, we introduced you to 9th Street’s Gourmet Coffee Program. At any given time we’ve got a generous rotating selection of gourmet coffees from around the country available for purchase: Stumptown, Intelligentsia, Counter Culture, and Doma are just a few gourmet coffee roasters that we carry.
Due to popular demand, we recently expanded our gourmet coffee offerings to include three local-to-Philadelphia coffee roasters:
We’re thrilled to be carrying these local roasters and hope you’ll pop into our stores to support locally-roasted coffee. Without further adieu…
