Owner Ken Steele opened Coffee Expressions on Aug. 9, 2004 after noticing a shortage of quality coffeehouses in the city. While he was researching the coffee industry, he discovered “Crimson Cup,” a Columbus-based roaster they’ve been using ever since.

The coffee shop’s menu includes a variety of flavor options like vanilla, peanut butter, caramel pecan, lavender, banana, cinnamon or maple, that can be added to any hot, iced, or frozen latte, and natural caffeine Lotus. For non-coffee drinkers, the cafe offers tea and smoothies.

In 2023, Coffee Expressions expanded and opened its own bakery in the suite next door. Baked goods are made in the bakery and then displayed and sold in the cafe daily. Customers can expect anything from cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting to turnovers, lemon poppy seed muffin bread, cookies and much more. The coffee shop also has breakfast sandwiches.
