BRANTFORD – For coffee drinkers, there’s nothing better than that full-bodied rich cup of Joe in the morning. Some of us can’t start our day without it. Over the last few years there’s been a proliferation of single-serving coffee brewing systems, better known by their brand names, K-cups by Keurig or T-discs by Tassimo. And now there’s a place in Brantford where you can get hundreds of different kinds of coffee for these machines in one convenient location, Koffee Korner.
Koffee Korner is new to the area but not the business, with 18 other locations throughout southern Ontario. The walls of the store are covered from floor to ceiling with different varieties of coffee, over 500 in fact. Most major brands of coffee are available but Brantford store manager Kaylyn Hamamy invites customers to try different flavours, as customers are free to mix and match, and each cup costs only 66 cents each. “A lot of people come in and are overwhelmed by how much we have for them to choose from,” says Hamamy.
Most of us probably grew up with the automatic drip machines at home and might not have made the leap to the single-serve machines that are now widely available. Kaylyn Hamamy invites everyone to make the switch. She highlights the convenience of the single-serve and adds, “Growing up my parents always had coffee but when my Dad made it, it was always too strong for me.” The single-serve machines ensure you get your coffee just the way you want it, when you want it, without having to spend money at the coffee shop.
Koffee Korner will be celebrating the grand opening of its Brantford location this Saturday at 10 AM to 2 PM with giveaways, prizes, and of course, free coffee. The store is located at 325 King George Rd, in the plaza across from the Walmart.
There is ample free parking and they are open Mon-Weds 10am to 7pm, Thurs-Fri 10am to 8pm, Sat 9:30am to 6pm and Sun 12pm to 5pm.
