Metta Coffee Cafe needs some TLC from you!
Metta means loving kindness. Spreading happiness, good health, safety, ease, joy, and connection to others. We know our community is a beacon for all of these practices and we are fortunate to be part of it and be able to give back soon.
We have decided to start this go fund me so that our friends, family, and customers have an opportunity to help keep a small local coffee shop cafe in Andover and support our passion for service and quality.
We are already working hard here at Metta Coffee Cafe to get things up and running again as quickly as possible. If we are able to raise the funds we need and keep going at the pace we are, we should have the drive thru open by June 1st and in house open by June 15th. (Fingers crossed.)
There are a lot of unknowns out there with the crisis at hand, as well as all of the licenses, filing fees, minor, and major projects that need to be done in the space. That is why we are looking to our friends, family, and the community for some financial help.
We are very lucky to be starting out with a great space, a lot of (mostly working) equipment, knowledge of the industry, some supplies, and a strong work ethic. However, the equipment needs some maintenance, the space needs some heavy cleaning, and the industry is making some major changes because of the current crisis. Due to the required transition processes, we had to toss a lot of food and we lost revenue. We are hoping that our customers and friends will be willing to help us get our doors open faster.
