The Music Café was founded by two old friends and their wives who had a desire to make a difference. Randy Anderson, who lives in Damascus and has always been passionate about specialty coffee, had a dream of opening his own coffee shop for the last 10 plus years. When his friend, Kurt Esche, approached him in the spring of 2005 with the same desire, the two agreed that this would be the start of something big! Both were involved with music for many years, and wanted to incorporate music into the business ... Thus, The Music Cafe, Inc. was born! | |
The Music Café will promote three infectious offerings:
- Specialty Coffee drinks
- Music and its history
- Mouth-watering food
The Music Café will set itself apart from the ordinary café by offering more than just pastries and sweets. Our objective is to create a convenient retreat for adults and children of all ages who love music, coffee, espresso, pastries, pies and cakes, as well as soups, healthy salads, gourmet sandwiches, specialty snacks and ice cream. We will combine all of these with great customer service!

The Legend of the Dancing Goats
Coffee was first discovered in what is now called Ethiopia. According to legend, the area's remote highlands were home to a goat herder named Kaldi. One day he noticed his goats dancing and prancing after eating a strange red berry. Not to be left out of the fun, Kaldi ate the berry and soon he was dancing with his goats.

In our search to bring our customers the best possible coffee, we chose to use Batdorf & Bronson Coffee Roasters. Batdorf & Bronson has been roasting premium coffees since 1986. With roasteries in Olympia Washington and Atlanta, Georgia, they guaranty that the coffee that they ship to us is fresh roasted to order. They are also dedicated to forming strong partnerships with their coffee growers to insure coffee quality and consistency. The New York Times describes Batdorf and Bronson as “…an example of a roaster who’s doing everything right.” |
