2. What musician, song, or 🎶 genre best represents the vibe of the store?
Waiting on the world to change by John Mayer
3. What‘s Vellichor Golden’s super power 💪 ?
A regular customer immediately chimed in with, “smiles,” while the baristas added: the people, the plants, the personality of the shop, housemade syrups, an in house bakery, plus the hand drawn chalkboard signs. Oh, and half the shop is a used book store.
As I sipped my oatmilk latte, the morning crowds began trickling in- baristas knew the names and drink orders of most customers when they walked in, including a group who were greeted, “Is it Catan day again?” as they settled in for a morning playing Settlers of Catan. One gentleman, laid back on a couch, was so engrossed in a book he’d picked up from the shelf he hardly looked up the entire time I was there. To me, the secret sauce of this place is comfort and familiarity. Even if it’s your first time in, you leave feeling like this place is home.
