Celebrating 20 Years!
CANTON OH-(March 28th, 2023)- Muggswigz Coffee and Tea Company celebrates their 20th year in business this April, 2023. Opening the shop in 2003, Founder and President, Alex Haas, sought to make Downtown Canton a ‘Destination Spot’ and revitalize the area with a shop serving specialty coffee, tea, baked goods, and supporting local artists. The company has come a long way since then, going from not having an ice maker and roasting coffee with a popcorn maker, to award winning roasted coffees, barista teams, and yes, a commercial ice machine. To celebrate, Muggswigz has a special line up of ways to celebrate, and want the community who supported them and kept them around to join in.
For the month of April, every Wednesday, all drinks will be 39% off, the percentage representing the cumulative rate of inflation since 2003. Muggswigz is bringing back drink specials from the early days, including the ‘Rocky Orange’, ‘Cafe Con Leche’, and Turkish Coffee. On Tuesday evenings, there will be special Open Mic Night Performers (see the Facebook group for more details) and songs dating to or before 2003 are encouraged. On April 3rd, Muggswigz will host a Poetry Open Mike Night. A community art project will be available to be on display and open for all guests, as well as previous years’ community art projects on display.
