Troublemaker Café has opened inside Givens Books bookstore and Little Dickens toy store in Lynchburg, Va. WSET reported the café "has been a long time coming and the owners are passionate about serving coffee, breakfast and lunch to the community."
Co-owner Jared Stuart said, "We want anybody to feel like this is their spot. It's coffee and a sandwich, it's quick, it's fun, it's friendly and it's for everyone; that's really important to us."
The owners have worked to give Troublemaker Café an inviting atmosphere for their customers, WSET noted. "We want to be like a friendly place, we want people to feel comfortable and welcome here," said Stuart. "It's really fun! We get crossover definitely from the demographic we are trying to reach."
They plan to monitor the café's business over the next couple of months to see what else could be added to the menu, including seasonal items in the future.
In an Instagram post, the owners wrote: "We've been working hard, hard, hard getting trained up and clarifying our vision. We take coffee seriously, and we take food seriously, and we take our role in this community seriously. Come and see us, talk to us, let us serve you, and let's reclaim this awesome little space inside of @givensbookslittledickens."
