About Awakenings Espresso Café

Welcome to Awakenings Espresso Café, voted Best of the Best Gourmet Coffee Shop of the Lakes Region in 2004! Awakenings is an independent coffeehouse with the finest in specialty coffee and tea, committed to quality in product and service. All of our coffee beans are hand cultivated, hand picked and processed, then craft roasted to our specifications, as we need it. These freshly roasted beans are then ground and brewed just before serving, producing a simply great cup of coffee. You can taste the difference! Organic, fair trade, shade grown, bird friendly coffees are all found here! We are similarly proud of our fully organic loose tea line. These teas are hand picked in India, China, Japan and Sri Lanka, from certified organic estates and tea farms, imported and handled with love by Divinitea, and brewed to perfection at Awakenings. Hot chocolate, chai, Italian sodas, and an extensive smoothie line, including Healthy Alternatives round out our beverage offerings. We stand by our quality promise that we call "BevAssurance", meaning that we will patiently and cheerfully keep making drinks till we find one that you love!

Our motto is "It's Not Just about Coffee". We serve tasty treats, home baked and delicious, as well as delightful lunch items. Our specialties include Mama Jane's cookies, her classics being chocolate chip, snickerdoodle and peanut butter. Our ever-expanding food line includes blueberry muffins with a streusel topping, bagels, and other yummy pastry items. If you are looking for a more hearty breakfast, we now offer a ham, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on a flaky croissant. Regular items include soups, Jane's Awesome Chicken Salad Wrap, and Panini sandwiches.

Awakenings is proud to announce that we have joined with Debbie from Sisters' 3. We now sell Debbie's pies and cakes. Loaf breads are available for order for the holidays. We also have lots of Debbie's treats for sale, like her Italian Egg Biscuits, sugar-free chocolate chip cookies and chocolate-dipped biscotti.

It's also about community, being in it, supporting it and creating it. Local musical talent play here with our open mic night on Thursday nights. Local artists display their works, exhibitions changing on a monthly basis. In the warmer months, patrons enjoy the Canal Street Courtyard. This magical space behind the café was created by Robert Sawyer and is accessed through the businesses of the 50 to 62 Canal Street building. This oasis of peace and harmony has a deck, brick patio, custom art wrought iron fence and flowerbeds.

Come and experience the joy!
