NORWICH - The community had the chance to formally welcome The Coffee Connection to the area Friday, with a Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting.
The cafe, which officially opened May 8, also held an open mic show with Emily Vogel, and owners Kristen Behuniak and Geri Barnes hope their success will continue.
“This is a dream come true for me,” Behuniak said of running the cafe. “I’m standing here thinking, ‘Hey, I’m working right now.’ And I’m having a great time. It’s great.”
Chamber of Commerce President Dave Hall said the opening of the Coffee Connection is exactly what the city needed.
“There is always that place where everyone meets up, and this can be that place,” he said.
