Just past the corner at Delmar and Skinker — in the heart of the Delmar Loop — you can find our flagship café in the same spot we've treasured since we opened our doors as Blueprint Coffee for the first time in 2013.
The Loop has a long and vibrant history. In a neighborhood with so much life, the only constant thing about it is its continual evolution. Over the last 13 years, we've watched from our café windows as so many businesses have moved in, made their mark on the Loop, grown and changed, and sometimes closed their doors. Students graduate and move away; children grow up; new dogs come to visit us all the time. We love being part of the rhythm of your lives, and of this neighborhood we call home.
Our space has evolved, too. For the first decade of business, we roasted and packaged all our coffee right in the back of this café. In 2020, we spent a while handing coffees off through the front door, then slowly welcomed customers back inside, a few at a time. When we were ready to open our doors to the public again, the footprint of our roasting, packing, and shipping operation had grown so much that we hardly had any café seats left. Then, two years ago we moved our roaster to our new headquarters on 39th Street — and since then we've had more floor space in the café than ever before. Today, Abby and her incredible team are so excited to serve you each time you walk through the door.
As our Delmar café continues to grow and evolve, we want to hear from you: What's working at Delmar? What do you need from us? How can we best serve you in this space we love so dearly?
