Restaurant Road Trip: Joan + Joe Coffee
MORGANTOWN, (WBOY) — Joan + Joe Coffee has made its way from the eastern panhandle of Charles Town to the heart of West Virginia—Morgantown, to share its homemade coffee, sandwiches, and baked goods with everyone in the region. Owners Veron and Duncan Ennis created the establishment out of their own love of cold brew, sharing their first few test runs with friends and members of their church before realizing what a miracle they had on their hands. From there, Joan + Joe Coffee came to fruition and expanded into creating unique specialty drinks that your taste buds wouldn't believe. 12 News spoke with both Veron and Duncan about what they believe to be the staple of their restaurant. 'It all comes back, I think, to our cold brew. We sell it by the gallon, half gallon, we even serve it hot. So cold brew served hot is something we really kind of specialize in,' Duncan said. 'All you have to do is heat it up, and it doesn't increase the acidity because it's already pulled off the grounds. So, for a really quick, easy cup of smooth coffee, you could heat it however you want. There's no mess and it's delicious,' Veron said. Restaurant Road Trip: Heather's Original Philly Cheesesteaks 'It's organic, it's very smooth, very drinkable. Many of our customers even say it's the only coffee they can drink without adding cream or sugar to it, it's just that good,' Duncan said. To go with your coffee is an assortment of goods, including a bacon jam sandwich with turkey and mayo, a turkey sausage egg and cheese on a croissant bun, and of course, a variety of different sweets like a crème brulé donut, berry tarts and chocolate croissants. But it isn't just the food that makes the restaurant so special. 12 News also spoke with Duncan and Veron on what sets Joan + Joe Coffee apart from other establishments. 'We want to be this place that people can come in and they kind of breathe and say, 'this is nice, I want to be here. I want to spend time here,' and then when you combine that with as friendly as we can be with our drinks and our staff, I think that's really what makes it work,' Duncan said. 'This business allows us to show love to many people, not just the people that walk in the door, but also our staff. The most important thing in this business is that we treat every person that walks through the door like they're the most important person in the world, you know, and if everyone did that, it would be wonderful, right? You never know what kind of day someone is having, and we can make it different, even if it is by a little bit,' Vernon said. Joan + Joe Coffee is open on Monday through Wednesday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Thursday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. It's closed on Sundays.
