Although we've had some chilly mornings lately, I can't complain too much about the weather..
It has been keeping us busy with lots of Frozen Hot Chocolates, Smoothies and, of course, Frozen Cappuccinos! Still too cold for those drinks now, so I'm having a chocolate-hazelnut latte. What are you drinking this morning?

I've been thinking about this for a while.. Have you noticed that over the past few years it seems that every gas station, fast food joint and book store are trying to get into the specialty coffee business? I am probably more picky about my coffee than most people, but there is no way I want the same person that flips my burger or changes my oil to make my coffee. After training dozens (if not hundreds) to make espresso drinks over the past 17 years I have encountered some that have worked in those other places. Although some have very strict procedures on how to make a drink (or a burger), they have very little appreciation for the art of making a truly great latte. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our Baristas at both of our locations for what they do, and thank all of our coffee drinkers for choosing quality over convenience.

See you soon,
Chris
PS- We do offer call ahead ordering for your convenience at both of our locations.

We have been searching from coast to coast to bring in some new coffees. You may have noticed our shelf of new flavors, blends, & varietals from different roasters all over the country.
Please let us know what you think! You can email me at chris@peaberryscafe.com. Thanks!

Irish White Mocha

As the snow is starting to melt.. well, at least I can see the cars next door over the snowpiles. We are trying out a new drink, the Irish White Mocha. Its a blend of creamy White Chocolate & Irish Cream, Espresso and Steamed Milk all topped with Whipped Cream.



In other news, I will be spending the early part of the week here at the Canfield shop, where I get to be barista.

Hope to see you soon!

Chocolate Strawberries and Red Raspberry Pie are here

Well, the Chocolate Dipped Strawberries are here.. and they look good! We also are taking orders for our Red Raspberry Pie (seen to the right). If you don't want to fight the snow to come in call us at 330.702.9230 to place an order and you can pick it up after the roads have been cleared.

Thanks for reading!

Just a reminder-- We have chocolate Cherry Coffee available by the pound. Makes a great start to Valentines Day!

How have you been?
I wanted to update everyone on the Chocolate Dipped Strawberries that we will be having for Valentine's Day.. We didn't like the look of the ones that came in, so we are sourcing new ones and I will let you know when they are available.
I've been serving lots of lattes at YSU, but am looking forward to getting back here to the Canfield Espresso Bar on Wednesdays. So please stop in to say hi & let me know what you have been up to.
Hope to see you soon!

Dec 18th Performance

Stop in on December 18th to hear the Sterling Strings while you do a little Christmas Shopping. They are a group of 5 to 12 year old children that will be performing Christmas Music starting at 6:30pm. I am looking forward to hearing them play myself after one of them gave a sample of their music to some of our staff last week. Thanks Christina for bringing them out - I am looking forward to seeing them perform!

On a related note, if you haven't finished your shopping, we have just got in a new shipment of travel mugs. Coffees are still being roasted- we can take "Roast to Order" coffee orders through the end of the week. Our holiday menus are available for cookie trays, pastries, and our fabulous Buche de Noel!

I hope to see you soon, as I will be up here more for the rest of the year.

And thanks for supporting local businesses like us this Holiday Season!!
