The driving force behind the Blue Heron Coffeehouse has always been our passion for providing good food and service to our community. With our large repertoire of recipes, culinary adventurism and commitment to quality we are able to offer a diversity of menu items that promote food that is local, seasonal and organically grown. We also advocate for sustainability and bio-diversity and cultivate a sense of community and a gathering space to support local growers, artists and musicians.
