CHURCH ALLEY CAFE & GROCERY

Owner Reneé Blanchard's mission is to nourish, empower and serve, and in 2015 she opened Church Alley as a small neighborhood coffee shop to achieve these goals. 

Today the coffee shop has expanded into a cafe and grocery, serving delicious coffee, tea and healthy meals in a comfortable space, as well as offering an array of grocery and pantry items. 

A mission driven company, they believe business, no matter the size, should make the community better. Church Alley aims to empower a more peaceful, resilient and connected community through compassionate and forward-thinking hospitality products and services. They believe in their capacity to improve the health and wellbeing of customers, staff, and environment; and in everyone's capacity to be good and do good.
