“When we opened Tavern on Green at our Gateway commons store, we believed that the location, variety and outstanding service would turn it into a success. We have weekly beer tastings, our mug club, a growing loyal customer base and great plans for 2012,” said Julie Crowley, Ithaca Coffee Company owner. “Opening up a new Tavern on Triphammer is very exciting. Since opening in 2004 the store has become an important part of the community. Expanding our business into a tavern is the natural next step for us”.
Crowley is the owner of Ithaca Coffee Company. She and her father, Bob Crowley own and operate Triphammer Wines and Spirits, their family business for 71 years. The Crowley family has been doing business in Ithaca for over 85 years, going back to Crowley’s restaurant, which opened in the 20’s.
Crowley says the Ithaca Coffee Company stands for Big City Feel with Small Town Friendly Service and offers a great place to sit for a pint of craft beer, a glass of wine, coffee or artisan cheese with a snack is exactly that.
“We feel this new tavern will turn into a favorite destination for the neighborhood and Lansing. We have no doubt it will draw more people to the Triphammer Marketplace and offer a new experience to our customers,” added Crowley.
The Ithaca Coffee Company has been locally roasting specialty coffee for over 25 years. The company carries a large variety of NY and local products as well as many gourmet and artisan products not easily found in the area. Under the Ithaca Coffee Company brand are scrumptious chocolates and candy, the Ithaca Coffee, an impressive line of specialty teas and more.
“We strive to offer our customers the best and most unique shopping experience and give each one the best service we possibly can.”
