A-SIDE
OFFB O More than two years in the making, the friendly folks at Furbish, A Salvage Place, have expanded their territory…across the street. Welcome to Offbeat Coffee, where you can grab a cuppa, listen to records and get inspired. Aimed at being an experience enhancement to Furbish, Offbeat highlights vintage decor while offering something more, something unique. Everything about the creative coffee shop has been carefully crafted and curated. Intentional in design and with well thought execution, Offbeat features a mix of vintage vibes, eclectic but cohesive. It is rich with plant life, locally painted art — some directly on the walls — and emanates comfort with bohemian style. Looking for tunes? The vinyl room is like a modern study, featuring shelves of organized records plus listening stations complete with headphones, providing you an opportunity to try before you buy or just sit, sip and listen. Then there’s the coffee — espresso on tap — which is a custom cold brew concentration crafted by Nam Nguyen at Archive Coffee Roasters. It forms the base of the coffee beverages, which are available hot or iced. You can get your coffee staples, like lattes and mochas, plus tea and kombucha, and there is talk of fizzy drinks and unique flavored lattes coming in the future.
