Dear (average) Joe,

It’s over. You’ve always been the ideal boyfriend: stimulating, comforting, dependable.

But we’ve fallen for someone a little smoother.

His name is Réveille Coffee Co., and we’ll be seeing each other daily.

Sure, he looks amazing — Scandinavian design with blond wood, clean lines, and white tile backsplash — but it’s more than that.

For starters, he’s energizing (espresso drinks) and socially conscious (committed to serving only direct trade coffees).

The brainchild of two java-loving brothers, his family values would impress even the Huxtables.

You’re probably doubting he has any substance. Well, we’re here to assure you his breakfast (homemade granola and buttermilk biscuits) and lunch options (braised brisket dip) leave us more than satisfied.

And did we mention the custom aprons by Levi’s? Boy can dress.

Really, it’s not brew. It’s us.

Love always,
DC
