New York has no shortage of fantastic coffee shops, but few of them have the unique mission and story of Maeve’s Place. If you’re passing through Phoenicia, New York, it’s a charming stop where you can enjoy a great breakfast, but it’s also a venture with a unique mission.
Maeve’s Place was originally opened by Iva Walsh, who wanted to open a coffee shop and café for her daughter, Maeve, who has Down Syndrome.
The coffee shop in Phoenicia, New York, has a loaded breakfast menu and a charming environment where patrons can relax. A sleek interior and unique warmth make Maeve’s Place the perfect place to enjoy a few pastries, coffee and conversation with friends.
The shop is also designed to create job opportunities for people with Down Syndrome, and the owner recently announced that the shop would be expanding for that purpose.
You can also stay for a while and enjoy a proper breakfast; try the Backyard Cowboy Breakfast Bowl or the Loaded Naan with sauteed peppers, tomatoes, egg and melted mozzarella.
Take a trip to Maeve’s Place, and you’ll also be able to enjoy products from places like Reason to Bake, a small-batch bakery in North Carolina’s Appalachian Mountains. Or try specialty coffee from Buddy Walk Coffee, a coffee roaster based in Westminster, Maryland.
If you’re looking for a fun adventure after your trip to Maeve’s, head to Phoenicia-Mt. Tobias Wild Forest for some stellar hikes and views. Do you know of another business with a heart that could use a little recognition? You can nominate that spot on our nomination page.
