Coffee, Coffee, Buzz, Buzz

Hub Bub Coffee Opens

We know tons of weirdos, quirks, and oddballs. And frankly, we love them all.

Upon meeting Drew Crockett, we gained entree into the mind of another affable loony.

This guy ditched his cushy job at Deutsche Bank, moved in with his parents, and is now selling coffee out of a mail truck. (Who does that? Seriously.) But this is no roach coach: Hub Bub Coffee, opening today, is tricked out with stainless steel counters, a sound system, Fetco coffeemakers, and La Marzocco espresso machines.

He uses Stumptown, making the joe he slings better than Adderall and tastier than La Colombe. Try a cappuccino, latte, or macchiato. Feeling peckish? Nosh muffin tops, cinnamon rolls, and cookies.

Although he’s stationary for now, he plans on traveling the city on weekends, tweeting his changing location.

Showing that this nut really uses his bean.
