Sound Coffee, known for their freshly roasted, ethically sourced beans, threw its grand opening at its Black Rock location in Bridgeport earlier this month after completing a full renovation. Since 2023, they’ve been serving the Bridgeport community from their cozy cafe at their roastery on Main Street– now, they’re excited to welcome even more coffee lovers with the opening of their new spacious cafe on Fairfield Avenue
Sound Coffee is run by husband and wife, Jeff and Sarah Roy, who were inspired to showcase their passion for quality coffee after honing their roasting skills at home. Their journey began when Jeff received a simple Christmas gift of a roasting at home coffee kit from his mother in law. In 2020 the Roy’s began roasting and selling out of their garage to neighbors and farmers markets before opening their first location on Main Street in Bridgeport.
For many of us, it’s hard to keep up with the constant change of fads and trends, but I think all of us can get on board with this one: mobile cocktail bars! While you’ve probably seen a few here and there over the years, Connecticut has really ramped up their traveling bar game and there are plenty to choose from. Plus, most travel throughout the state, so you don’t have to worry about lack of accessibility. They come in all different shapes and sizes, offer various alcoholic beverages (many include NA drinks and food too), and they service any event you might be hosting. From intimate groups to large gatherings, these mobile trucks (and their bartenders) are excited to cater a birthday bash, corporate lunch, fundraiser, or your next (and hopefully last?) wedding. While many crazes come and go, I sure hope this one is here to stay, because who doesn’t like a good boozy party with no need for a DD?
Spring is here, which means bringing lunch and dinner outside and enjoying the warmer weather. What better way to enjoy your next meal than at one of Connecticut’s many food trucks? Many of these businesses travel around their local regions and state-wide, bringing tasty food to your neighborhood. Or, you can have the food truck come directly to you and cater your next event, whether it’s a wedding, birthday bash, or corporate event.
