Northern Coffeeworks Celebrates Their 1 Year Anniversary
And just like that, it's already been a year since Northern Coffeeworks opened at 1027 S Washington Avenue. I recently met with their General Manager, George Hadfield, who demonstrated his fierce latte art skills as well as filled me in on the business.

Owner Josh Klauck is also the proprietor of Angry Catfish Bicycle + Coffee Bar, which explains the bike hanging on the back wall.
They source products and ingredients locally when at all possible. In addition to coffee, tea, wine, beer, cider, switchel and kombucha (drink menu), you'll find a tempting selection of pastries, waffles, sandwiches and other freshly prepared items (food menu).

Per George, the House Trail Cookie is their best seller from the bakery case. Some items are made in-house, others from Patisserie 46, and some gluten free.
Looking around the shop you'll notice several areas with items for sale, ranging from coffee and brewing paraphernalia to journals and pencils.
Check out the daily specials when you walk in the door. Below, Alex was updating the list when I arrived.
For your listening pleasure, there's a turntable and selection of LPs.
Future plans include installing their own bean roaster in the space adjacent to the main bar and seating area.
Hours are 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM daily (kitchen is open until 4). The daily 3p-5p Happy Hour special is $2 off wine and beer. Follow them on Facebook and Instagram, phone 612-353-4222.
