So, maybe you know this already… but maybe you don’t: We here at BTC are not only hawkin’ sizzlin’ single origin and blends but also NOW steamin’ tracks of recorded music that’s pleasant to the ear, perhaps intriguing, physical so you can hold it, but analog so it doesn’t hold you(r data and sell it to the worst people, companies, and/or governments). That’s right: recorded music and coffee. Why not? Frankly, there’s a real deficit of this stuff up here. And some of us here have music degrees from universities… So, ya know, we have thoughts and maybe a lil’ somethin-somethin’ to contribute (perhaps).

Anyway, Saturday 04/29 will mark our first foray into found sounds on vinyl and wethinks it best to pair with vine/vinyl connoisseurs TABLE [FLIPPING] BAR. We’ll be there from 10-4PM. That’s right, extended hours. So come on by to Gardiner for uppers, downers, crooners, boppers, rockers, and beat boxers if you care for some DAMN EXCITEMENT in your life.

We’ve been drooling on our broken iPhone screens for months now. Why? Well, some of it is genetics. But most of it has to do with incredible looking cakes, snacks, and viennoiserie on FULL DISPLAY thanks to both Victoria Nam (of Siblings Bakery) and Kelsi Mari Morgan (Speckled Ax). But, Portland is about 2 hours away from Bangor. Which isn’t an impossible drive. But maybe you gotta plan a little bit and hope schedules are in sync. And for a while it seemed like that might never be possible for our dumb butts. But after long last, we the people, that don’t live “down south,” are gonna get a chance to check out their awesome food! So, don’t miss your chance, people. They’re gonna be at Goods in Camden. We’re over the moon to be along side with some fun coffee for ya. Just a hunch that this event is going to be nuts and they’re taking pre-orders for those of you worried about not getting there early enough. CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED and SEE YA SOON, MIDCOAST.

We’re still just positively CRUISING, nay SAILING, off of the incredible vibes on hand after our last wonderful hang at Goods (in the one and only Camden, ME*). But wait, is that a rip tide? A cool rip tide? A rip tide that has us descending back toward Camden? Back toward Goods? Is that how rip tides work? Because if it is, SIGN US UP (Can one sign up for a rip tide? And if so, where? In Camden? At Goods?) aaaand this is GREAT and we’re still stuck and don’t help! Just hang with us :)

Yes, you heard us correctly, we’re heading back to Goods where we’ll be joined by the delicious sourdough Juggernaut known only as Chicky’s. They’ll be on hand with Breakfast Pizza because, that’s right, it’s a morning thang people, and morning thangs mean Breakfast Pizza with your coffee. And while we are not currently sure what Chicky’s has in mind, we’re CONFIDENT it’s gonna be WILD. AAAAAAnd ya know, hello, Goods, right? Our thinking is, while that breakfast pizza will be BEAUTIFUL and WONDERFUL on it’s own, …who’s to say you don’t buy one or all of the hot sauce bottles on hand at GOODS and toss a little on yer BREAKFAST SLICE??? Or maybe you want to get fancy and we figure out some kind of Goods sanctioned BUBBLY ARRANGEMENT with your coffee??? What if???

AND WILL THIS POST EVER END??? YES.
See you soon.
at GOODS… IN CAMDEN.

Don’t call it a come back. Because we technically go back to Table Bar all the time. Some of those times are just off the clock, so to speak.

WE DIGRESS! We’re heading back to that beautiful wine zone, Table Bar, in that grand ol’ town (Gardiner, not to be confused with Old Town, who as you know we also adore) to serve up MANY, MANY, MANY ESPRESSI (<<< points for saying multiple espressos in Italian, thanks). That’s right, we’re doing multiple options on espresso, again. Why wouldn’t we? Sure, it’s a lot of work to lug a single grinder, let alone two (or as the Italian say, “due”) but we think that a) the flavors are worth it b) you’re worth it and X) Table Bar is worth it.

Aaaaaaand were two different espressos on tap not enough, we’ll be joined by the good folks of Sand Hill Bagel Co, who’ll be on hand to facilitate your every bagel need and desire. That’s right: bagels, coffee-galore, and amazing wine, on a Sunday morning, in a great space, in a dang cute town. LIVIN’.

So get ye over to Gardiner, sip shots, eat some bagels, and buy a nice bottle o’wine, friend!

okay bye.

Listen, it’s new year. It’s a brand new opportunity to do things the right way. This is you now, so do the work: You’re committed to eating tasteful sourdough leavened bagels with incredible spreads along side fun coffee in one hell of store (if you can even call Goods “a store,” because to us, it’s actually more like a cool galaxy), and in a dang idyllic town by the coast or the shore or the beach (however you like it, that’s the way you need it).

So, we at BTC thank you in advance for letting us into your life in this new year, 2023 (although Google is telling us the year is something closer to 4.543 billion… at least on earth).

We’ll be armed with coffee, sourdough loaves, and a some vegan treats, and tunes. Sweet tunes, in fact. Table Bar will have bags o beans. Probably more things, too. It’s going to be great.

Holy Smokes.
We’re joining forces with our flightless frenz, Dodo Bagles, yet again at the Lil’ Pop Shop on 44th St this Sunday from 9-Noon. Or at least that’s the idea. Fair warning: there’s a VERY REAL CHANCE that goods will disappear so fast from this thing that we will be sold out well before Noon. Of course, the idea has been and will always be: Don’t be a sellout.
But… stuff happens. $$$
Were we you, West Philadelphian (wait we are you, West Philadelphian…), we would be sure to get up EARLY this Sunday and get some treats and coffee! Dodo’s making some of the sickest bagels around and quite frankly this might be the tastiest breakfast west of the Schuykill this weekend. FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF.
