Background
Warm, welcoming, artsy, coffee house near the University of El Paso. Opened in July 2004 with 6 employees...today currently employed 18 team members. Every weekend we host local musician talents and artists. Provide only fairtraded and organic coffee along with a large selection of sandwiches, salads, Italian frozen yogurt, etc.
Keys to Success
What makes us special is not only the ambiance of the coffee house but the shear attraction of the positiveness of the team members and the customers. We provide free WI-FI along with plenty of space to sit and work and chat.
Special Events
We host local musicians and artists.
Target Customers
We welcome everyone but due to the fact we are within a few blocks of the university, we cater mostly to students.
Challenges Faced
6 months after we opened, Starbucks opened. We were impacted for the first 3 months but soon after, Kinley's House started to ramp up and succeeded in increase of sales.
Where We're Headed
At the end of 5 years, I hope to be able to be the best coffeehouse in El Paso.
