Press Coffee celebrates the grand opening of its new flagship roasting facility and cafe today on the southeast corner of 32nd Street and Shea in Phoenix
The 5,600-square-foot, two-level roastery features a modern lounge area from which customers can watch the roasting process. The upper level is available for private events and coffee classes.
The café offers an expanded food and drink menu. In addition to the coffee- and espresso-based drinks, customers can order beer, wine, and spirits.
The old roastery was located on 40th Street about a half-mile south of I-10 in south Phoenix.
‘‘We are thrilled to welcome the community into our new flagship location,’’ Press co-owner Steve Kraus says. ‘‘The roastery allows us to share with the public our love for coffee and how we make it.’’
Besides the roastery, 11-year-old Press operates seven other cafes throughout the Valley, including two in Tempe and one in Chandler.
To celebrate the grand opening, Press will sell $1 drip coffees through Sunday with 100 percent of profits donated to Phoenix Children’s Hospital.
