Wholly Grinds Coffee Shop

05/16/2026

Y’all look who joined the WHOLLY Grinds crew 🥹☕🧶 Meet Beanie Brew — our new little coffee chatski handcrafted with so much love by Ashley over at 💛

Not only is this the cutest thing ever (because please look at the little eyes 😭), but it means even more knowing it came from one of our regulars who continues to support us, pour into us, and show us love in the sweetest ways.

Ashley, thank you for this thoughtful gift and for always supporting our family’s coffee shop. We appreciate you more than you know ☕✨

If y’all haven’t checked out yet, definitely go show some love! She’s just 6 minutes away from us and has everything for the yarn & crochet lovers — yarn, supplies, accessories, classes, private events, and all the cozy creative vibes 🧶✨

Perfect excuse for a little local shop hop: grab coffee with us then swing by Bev’s… or hit Bev’s first and bring your crafty self to us after 😂☕🧶

Small businesses supporting small businesses will always be one of our favorite things 🤎

Sooo we posted this on Saturday… it’s now Wednesday…. AND y’all haven’t missed a beat with these waffles and griddles😭.

Y’all we even ordered a little extra than our usual order. Even with that we’re pretty sure we’ll be sold out of waffles again by or before Saturday.

🚨So this is your official warning🚨 If you’ve been asking and wanting one, come see us sooner than later! Don’t worry though! We’ll still have our delicious pizza bagels to satisfy your hunger pangs till we get our next shipment of waffles in again.

Quick Story Time

🚨‼️ WHOLLY WAFFLE LOVERS BEWARE🚨‼️

Sooo our mom ordered a WHOLLY Griddle this morning and like a good daughter. I hand delivered it to her personally… but before I left… I had to apply and collect my child tax😌 I just took a “lil bite” as she likes to say when she applies and collects her mom tax🤣

Moral of the story?

Be careful sending your loved ones to grab you a WHOLLY Waffle or a WHOLLY Griddle… it might not make it back to you untouched… just sayin🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

Teachers and school staff, we appreciate you!🍎☕️

We’re proud to offer 10% off for educators every day, but this week we wanted to do a little more to celebrate the impact you make in our community.

Here’s what we have planned at WHOLLY Grinds:

🍎 The Teachers Lounge

We created a space in-shop to slow down and show some love.
✏️ Write a note to your favorite teacher, an encouraging message, or a simple thank you
📌 Add it to our Appreciation Station wall
📸 Take a photo, tag us on Facebook or Instagram, and you’ll be entered to win a $25 gift card.

🧇 First Bell Treat

The first 15 teachers each day will receive a free mini waffle or mini wholly bread with purchase. Don’t forget your badge! (while supplies last)

🍏 Golden Apple Surprise

A few cups each day will have a surprise sticker on the bottom (they might look like Avengers though 😂🤷🏾‍♀️ but teachers & school staff are the real-life superheroes around here anyway 😌).

If you find one, you can redeem it for:
• a free drink on your next visit
or
• a free wholly bread or waffle during your current visit (while supplies last)

☕️ Try One of Our Featured Teacher Drinks
• Homeroom – Salted Caramel, Cinnamon Bun & French Vanilla
• The Hall Pass ⚡️ – Strawberry, Watermelon & Grape

☕️ Fill the Mug for a Teacher

You’ll see a BIG mug at the counter all week—if you’d like, add $1 (or any amount!) to the mug at the counter this week — even the change you get back from your purchase. At the end of the week, we’ll turn it into a gift card for a local teacher who deserves a little extra love.

Know someone who deserves it? Tag them on our page so we can show them some mug love 💛

🧇 For everyone who’s been asking—our WHOLLY Waffles made their return this weekend and the DoorDash orders started rolling in right away. If you’ve been waiting on them, come see us soon while they’re available🧡🤎

Everything runs all week long.
If you’re a teacher or school staff, just bring your ID so we can take good care of you🫶🏽🧡🤎

We’re grateful for all that you do and look forward to serving you this week.

Hey Coffee Lovers☕️🫶🏽

Tomorrow, Monday 4/6, WHOLLY Grinds will be closed.

After doing everything we could to make the day work, between a lighter team and life happening behind the scenes, we ultimately chose what matters most: family. As a small, family-run shop, that sometimes means giving ourselves permission to pause and show up for the people who pour so much into this business, this team, and our home.

Especially after last week’s unexpected closure, we truly understand the inconvenience and never make these decisions lightly. But some moments are too meaningful, too well deserved, and too overdue not to be fully present for. We’re giving ourselves the space to be present for a meaningful moment and celebrate it the way it deserves.

We know unexpected closures can be inconvenient, and we truly appreciate the grace, understanding, and support y’all continue to show our little shop. Being small business owners, parents, and people means sometimes the most important thing we can do is honor the moments we don’t get back.

Thank you for always allowing us the room to pour into our family the same way we love pouring into this community.

We’ll reopen Tuesday morning and look forward to seeing y’all then.

Coffee lovers, we’ve got good news 🤎 🧡

We’ll be back open tomorrow during our normal hours,
7 AM–2 PM, and we can’t wait to welcome you back in.

Thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and continued support while we worked through everything. Your grace and love for our small business truly means the world to us.

If you’ve been craving your favorite sip, tomorrow is the perfect day to stop by, show us some love, and help us get back to the grind. And if you’re off for the holiday, it’s the perfect excuse to meet up with your favorite person, linger a little longer, and make WHOLLY Grinds part of your day 🤎🧡

We’re so excited to serve you again and can’t wait to welcome you back!
