BAINBRIDGE – A new coffee shop is opening in Bainbridge this Thursday, March 1 and will offer all veterans and active military personnel free in-house coffee anytime they stop in.
Small Town Perks, located at 25 West Main Street on NY-206, is a small coffee shop created by Jason and Erica Hall. Opening at 6 a.m. Thursday and closing at 2 p.m., the shop will serve Tom's Coffee from Binghamton, baked goods, teas, homemade soups, cards, gifts, and more.
"I think definitely any new business in any small town is good, and also doing something for the veterans is nice, too" said Jason Hall. "I'm a veteran myself, just shy of 10 years. It's something I hold dear to my heart."
Jason said any veteran or active military personnel are able to stop in Small Town Perks to receive a free in-house coffee with proof of military identification. "I think it's kind of cool. It's small, but it's something."
Jason said Erica, who is a Bainbridge native, will be running Small Town Perks. After its opening Thursday, the coffee shop will be open every week from Wednesday to Sunday from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m.
