Coffee shop
celebrates 10 years
Business was brisk last Tuesday at Rick and Dorthe Noonan’s Cape Ann Coffees at 86 Bass Ave. While many customers were buying coffee, all drinks were 10 cents in celebration of the couple’s 10 years in business. Many of the couple’s original customers stopped by during the day, said Dorthe Noonan.
“It was a bank once, and many other businesses since, but we’ve been here the longest,” she said of the drive-through building. “It’s good for moms with babies and for dog walkers.”
Her husband said it was a busier-than usual Tuesday, with people taking advantage of the 10-cent special, some coming through three times during the day.
