Rosie's Coffee Cafe

Rosie's Coffee Cafe is owned by Sheri Ricks and is located in East Point, GA. They have also recently opened a second location on Northside Dr. next to the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium. (You can also go across the street to Restaurant 10, which is owned by Ricks as well.) The food, service and prices are all beyond expectations.

Sheri is an engaged owner who is dialed-in to her operation. She makes sure that all her staff provide each customer with a consistently exceptional experience!

Historic Noir Coffee Group

Historic Noir Coffee Group is based out of Atlanta, GA and was founded by Ricardo Richardson. While visiting Rosie's Coffee Cafe recently with some friends - I spotlighted Rosie's a couple months ago - we were introduced to the Historic Noir Coffee Group brand of coffee. The blend names honor the founder's Atlanta roots with names such as West End, Fourth Ward and Decatur.

With all the stuff going on with Starbucks and other companies who are insensitive to our community, it's great to know that we have alternatives to the big brands! Let's drive sales for them by asking the restaurants that you patronize if they carry Historic Noir Coffee.

Mae's Bakery

Mae's Bakery is located in Atlanta, GA and is owned by Kim Woodward. When I first heard about Mae's at a recent networking event, I HAD to come for a visit. Having places to meet with prospective clients is important in business. And Mae's doesn't disappoint!

The decor is very inviting with relaxing tones that make you want to sit all day. Not only does Mae's have some fantastic coffee, but they also offer a full breakfast and lunch menu with vegan options available.
