Espressions Coffee Community Hello! Together in co-ownership, best friends Lisa & Maile own Espressions: Coffee & Community. It's cozy and warm. Come on in!

Espressions is a coffee shop and independent bookstore with a journal bar and a craft "while you're here" bar! Lisa and Maile are excited to bring you Espressions: Coffee & Community LLC. Our mission: We exist to build a community that people help create. A place where every person, near or just passing through, is welcomed as they are and given room to belong. However you gather: over coffee, a craft table, game night, or a chapter of a book, YOU belong here.

This weekend at Espressions, the tables were full and so were our hearts.

Mahjong tiles clacking. Journals open. Pipe cleaners turned into masterpieces by our youngest crafters. Cake, coffee, and the kind of conversation that runs long because nobody wants to leave.

This is what “more than just coffee” looks like.

So here’s your Monday invitation: come grab your usual (or try something new), find a cozy chair, and see what’s happening this week. Whatever brings you in (coffee, a craft, game night, or a chapter of a good book), you belong here.

📍 1117 M Street, Aurora
📞 Call ahead for to-go: 402-694-3214

Soup will be Taco Soup and we’re here until 4! See you soon.
Ps: there’s still some cheesecake!

Good morning! Lisa & Maile are kicking off 1 month of being OFFICIALLY OPEN with Cafe Bon Bons and Boeder (bay-der) Toast!

What is Boeder Toast? Let us share 😀

In a the far away land of Wisconsin is the little village of Luxemburg. A few miles out of town is a farm know as the Zoo on the Hill. Many, many years ago, Maile visited John for the first time. She was treated to a hearty breakfast after chores made by Grandpa 💙 It was there she was introduced to this humble dish: toast with butter, jam and sharp cheddar cheese alongside farm fresh eggs and bacon. At first, she was quite skeptical, but soon learned it was delightful.

Whenever she visited the Zoo on the Hill or the Boeder family, she was often treated to this delicious dish. She’s been know for eat it when John and her were dating and she missed him. Ahhh.

When John and Maile bring friends home, they share this family gem with them. This includes Lisa! John’s dad, Wally, made it for them every morning of their visit this past July.

When Lisa & Maile decided to put “Toasts” on the menu at Espressions, Boeder Toast was a must! It’s perfect since John is also the baker behind the sourdough we have baked JUST for our toast.

We hope you decided to visit us and enjoy some Boeder toast or one of other delicious menu items!

We are here until 4 today. As promised, we’re making white chicken chili. Come see us!

Thank you so much! We are so proud to be a part of this community and to be serving such awesome people.
