MORE REASONS TO VISIT DOWNTOWN
For years, our downtown Bremerton Cups Espresso & Cafe location has quietly offered customers a free drink when they supported Ballast Book Company, our community's indie bookstore owned by Kate and operated by her and her small team here.
We’ve never asked for anything in return. We’ve simply always believed that local small businesses help make downtown Bremerton special, and we wanted to encourage people to discover and support one another.
Starting today, we’re excited to officially expand that longtime program to include a few more of our neighbors surrounding the corner of 4th & Pacific next to Quincy Square in the heart of Downtown Bremerton. ❤️
So, starting today, the program officially expands. Now, when you spend $40 or more at any of these businesses on 4th & Pacific:
📚 Ballast Book Company (owned by Kate)
🎶 Bigfoot's House of Vinyl & More (owned by Clint & Mandi)
🫒 Vulca's Mediterranean Market (owned by Alison & Ian)
🛍️ The Bremerton Mercantile (owned by Jimmy & Michael who also own Cups)
…just bring your receipt into Cups and receive a FREE 12 oz housemade drink of your choice, including lattes, mochas, teas, or Italian sodas (excludes energy drinks or canned sodas).
Receipts must be redeemed the same day as purchase or, if Cups is already closed, the following day. You can only redeem one receipt per person, per day (so you can't bring a Mercantile and Vulca's receipt and get two free drinks).
With rising costs continuing to impact small businesses everywhere, we know how important it is for local businesses to support one another whenever possible.
Downtown Bremerton has grown slowly, but steadily over the years thanks to independent small business owners willing to take risks, invest in this community, create local jobs, and help bring life back into our downtown core. Small businesses that go where the big corporations won't. Rather than just talking about supporting local, we wanted to expand our real action behind it.
Programs like this are one small way we can help encourage people to explore downtown, support neighboring businesses, and keep more dollars circulating locally right here in our community.
📍All businesses are located around 4th & Pacific next to Quincy Square in Downtown Bremerton.
🅿️ Free street parking is available nearby, and we’re also just a short walk from the Washington St. Parking Garage at 4th & Washington.
