Who's excited for something new? Opening 7am at 1

Who's excited for something new?

Opening 7am at 141 Charlotte St, July 2. We've been working hard. Of course, everything is behind schedule and over budget! But we dig deep and find help where we can (child labour! 🤣)

I am so so so grateful for such a robust, caring, generous community. So many have offered to help move, paint, clean.

I haven't really let myself (Andrew here!) get excited. There are so many moving parts that this is absolutely terrifying, despite knowing that by every metric this is going to be GREAT.

We're really excited to serve you soon!

Dreams of Beans is moving! Taking over the old Whi

Dreams of Beans is moving! Taking over the old Whistle Stop location is a big job, but onwards and upwards! First week of July at 141 Charlotte St.

Wherever you are, stop. Take a moment. When is

Wherever you are, stop.

Take a moment.

When is the last time you'll see this view?

Take a picture.

Maybe you'll never see that view again. Maybe you'll change and you'll see it differently. Maybe the space changes. Maybe the people you're with will be different next time.

Change.

Change has been on my mind a lot. iykyk iydkyyks

I've been holding back some big news, mostly because I haven't let myself feel excited about it yet. Also because I want to roll it out _perfect_. But sometimes we let "perfect" get in the way of "good enough".

So, stay tuned. I'm dropping the bomb 💣💣💣 tomorrow!!!

Sure, good coffee and good food are reasons to get out of the house.

But what is it that makes us form lasting relationships, find commraderie and commiseration, and keep us coming back?

#community

My phone is filled with photos of awesome people who have made Dreams of Beans what it is. First Friday Art Crawls, drag shows, open mics, broken espresso machines.

The last year has been an incredible journey, and I'm grateful to all who call Dreams of Beans their café.

Here's to several more! 🍻

... Pssssst sorry it's been so long! I've been _so_ busy. Keep your eyes peeled for big news! iykyk iydkyyks

My favourite #superbowl is the great horned! Pictu

My favourite #superbowl is the great horned! Pictured here with a pal, planning to visit their friends at a maker market instead of fighting over billions of dollars of made up lines and a ball that so very few players actually kick with their foot.

...but ask me how I really feel!

Come out to a makers market and meet some great artists, friends, and neighbours!

We're open 11-4 tomorrow just for this!

Tonight 7pm at Dreams of Beans, join us in watching Summer of Soul.

Just 100 miles south of Woodstock in '69, three hundred-thousand people attended The Harlem Cultural Festival. These tapes were recorded and forgotten, and recently produced into a documentary. Previously unseen performances by Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sly and the Family Stone, and more.

Free admission.
