Last Saturday, we officially celebrated the grand opening of TreeHaus Coffee! Co-owners Simeon Talley and Mobin Khan have created what they call a true "community living room," a comfortable, welcoming spot between home and work where you can grab a great cup of coffee, meet up with friends, or catch up on emails.

"We believe downtown Waterloo has a lot to offer, and we're excited to be part of a growing community of small businesses, creatives, and people investing in its future." - Simeon Talley

As a fresh addition to downtown, the TreeHaus team wants the community to help shape what the space becomes. They are looking for your input on the types of community events you'd like to see hosted! Whether it's book clubs, chess clubs, game nights, pop-up markets, or creative workshops, they want to hear what ideas you have for the space.

From specialty drinks featuring Chocolate Fish Coffee Roasters to delicious treats from local partners like Bluff & Crumb, Con Amor Bakery, Tea Cellar, and Hansen's Dairy, TreeHaus brings so much local flavor to the area.
