Barn House Coffee and Tea is preparing to open in the Barn
Shops of Chadds Ford on April 23. The shop will be located in the old antique
shop between the Chadds Ford Gallery, Clipso Hair Salon and the Brandywine
River Hotel.

Owner Bill Githens said the shop will serve breakfast
pastries and bagels in the morning, along with soup and sweater fare in the
afternoon. There will be both indoor and outdoor seating.

Githens said the coffee will taste more like that from
Starbucks than from Wawa.

“We’re not going to have a brewer at the shop; we’re
actually going to use a press for everything. We’re going to use French presses
for all our coffee and all our tea,” he said adding that the press does a
better job in bringing out the full flavor of the beverages. Paper filters in
conventional brewing pull out many of the essential oils, he said.

Githens also said the shop will use super premium coffee.

Barn House Coffee and Tea will be open seven days per week:
6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 6 a.m.-9 p.m. Friday, 7 a.m.-9 p.m.
Saturday and 8 a.m.-3 p.m. on Sunday.

    You have made my day. As the owner of another local business, I am so happy to see a new coffee shop (especially one that actually opens early when we want to have coffee) – we need it and we’ll be down to support it!

    I am constantly looking for places that serve “real” coffee (that is the non-brewed coffee)…there are not many…..so I was beginning to lose hope! Where I come from, a great coffee is part of our culture & lifestyle, a way to socialize and do business. I look forward to visiting your new coffee shop to try it out!
