When It Rains, It Pours

Thanks to everyone who supported us through a really difficult weekend. Within the span of 3 days, Hartford Coffee had these trials:

The flavored coffee grinder crapped out.

A shipment of green coffee beans did not arrive last week as planned-leaving very little coffee for roasting, drinking or purchase.

The espresso machine broke, creating a very difficult situation as there are only 2 companies in town capable of repairing our super-automatic and they didn't have the parts in stock.

The kitchen equipment was rearranged due to power circuit failure.

A few menu items ran out.

As of Monday night, I'm pleased to announce that all is well at Hartford Coffee. The whole crew spent the whole day restocking, repairing, replacing and recovering. It was exhausing for everyone but we're up and running at full speed.

Thanks again for your business and friendship. You are appreciated!
