The husband and wife duo behind Greenberry’s Coffee Co., Sean and Roxanne Simmons knew they wanted to bring a higher quality of coffee to the public. After years in the corporate world, they decided to learn the heart and soul of coffee from Alfred Peet, the pioneer who first brought high-end coffee to America in the 1960s. From that knowledge grew Greenberry’s Coffee Co., named after Sean’s ancestor who exhibited the same dedication to hard work and quality that they wanted to bring to the coffee world and opening their flagship store on Barracks Rd. in 1992.

Twenty-five years later, Greenberry’s Coffee Co. has developed into more than just a single coffee shop. While still maintaining that home away from home feeling within each store, Greenberry’s Coffee Co. has continued to grow with the trends and with the support of the growth in appreciation and knowledge of Specialty Coffee, so did the demand for Greenberry’s. Sean & Roxanne then started franchising Greenberry’s Coffee Co. and partnering with like-minded people who share their same passion for coffee, quality and customer service. Read More
