Happy Leap Day Birthday, Cafe Rica

Cafe Rica owners Tristan and Jackson BredehoftOur favorite Battle Creek coffee (and so much more) shop opened on Feb. 29, 2020, so they celebrated their First Birthday this year, with some really fun things.

Festivities will include buy one, get one half off lattes and espresso drinks all day Thursday, special birthday cookies as well as a mug club sale, with opportunities to purchase a lifetime membership.

To further mark the occasion, Tristan and Jackson will be behind the bar Thursday, serving up drinks, “just like old times.” A special birthday brunch, complete with birthday cake stuffed pancakes, is planned for Saturday at the coffee shop.

And see why it’s our favorite?

“Initially, we never thought about having a food service or a retail business, we were planning on doing all wholesale,” he continued. “But throughout the years of building those relationships and kind of navigating what the market was desiring, we have steered into being this hub for people to come have a good time, meet people here, build even more relationships that help us grow our community. It just feels amazing to be part of that.”
