This is a difficult time for all of us. We love and miss our Merced community dearly, and we are humbled by all the support you've shown us. While we shelter-in-place, we've decided that remaining open for walk-in orders does not align with our mission or the severity of the public health crisis that we face.



We will be temporarily closing our doors beginning Friday, March 27th. We will reopen as soon as we feel confident that customers and staff will be safe. For us, that might be as soon as April 7th, or as late as a few months. We appreciate your patience during this time.



During our closure, will be employing our staff to engage in a variety of low-risk projects, including:
-preparing food to donate to local organizations and people in need (such as Merced Rescue Mission and local food banks)
-helping to gather and distribute PPE to protect our local medical professionals
-making improvements to the shop (a new mural is in the works)
-pioneering new delicious recipes
-and...


Managing the Coffee Bandits online store! We will offer beans, teas, shirts, cold brew kits and other awesome wares! We greatly appreciate your support in these challenging times.



We hope to use this time where it is most needed in our Merced community. If you have any questions or suggestions for how we can help, please reach out at bandits@coffeebandits.org



Stay safe and sane out there, Merced! If we work together, we can make it through this and come out stronger than ever!
