Celebrating The London Plane + La Marzocco Cafe

On Sunday, July 30 a special coffee and pastry pairing was held at the La Marzocco Cafe to celebrate the relationship between the Cafe and The London Plane. After a brief introduction, guests were invited to sample bites of London Plane pastries – each paired with different coffee hand selected by Cafe Experience Coordinator, Lucas Rickerson. It was a delectable afternoon and we were happy to have so many guests join us for the tasting. We are honored to be able to have a continuing relationship with The London Plane by offering their delightful pastries and bread to our guests. Read on to learn more about the beloved Seattle company and how our relationship formed.

As their residence comes to a close, we send our sincere thanks all the way down to New Zealand and Australia where Coffee Supreme calls home. We know it takes the effort of many hands to launch a residence and we want each one to know how much we appreciate the hard work. We specifically want to thank Al Keating, Douglas Johns, Sophie Evans, Patrick Janowicz, and Jonny Calder. From providing countless details to training our staff, haggling with US customs and traveling across the globe, you are all legends! It’s been a pleasure serving your coffee and representing the fun and hospitable company that is Coffee Supreme.
