Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.
While Verena Street Coffee isn’t a traditional café, we roast, brew, and serve fresh coffee daily at our roastery in Dubuque, Iowa—so you can taste the difference right where it’s made. Our team includes skilled baristas and coffee pros who obsess over every detail, from dialing in the grind to pulling smooth, balanced shots. We’re big fans of a great drip coffee and believe every roast should shine—whether it’s in a home brewer, a café setup, or a cupping table.
What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?
We’re always curious about the coffee scenes in places like Melbourne, Tokyo, and Copenhagen—where innovation meets coffee culture. But we also love exploring the U.S. café scene, especially in cities where independent shops thrive.

About My Company:

What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
Coffee brings people together—at home, at work, and across cultures. We love how it sparks conversations, daily rituals, and even big ideas.
