A great BIGGBY COFFEE and Father's Day story

Novi MI

"Mike Waltersdorf wants to thank his father, Leigh, for helping make his dream a reality.

The 42-year-old Ann Arbor resident recently opened the doors to his first Biggby Coffee on Grand River Avenue, in Novi, May 6.

The father and son duo planned to be partners in the business until Leigh, 64, of Okemos, was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer and had to take a step back, handing the majority of the reigns to Mike.

“My dad helped make this happen, and I can’t thank him enough,” Waltersdorf said. “Dad was diagnosed around the time we made the decision to open and it was a decision between him and my mother, Sue, to carry on.”
Full story :)

BIGGBY COFFEE -- Owosso

A quote from the Argus-Press....

“I think they will be a nice addition to our shopping center,” Kerr said. “It has a nice offering of service and product. I think they will do a nice job in Owosso.”

“Personally, I would really like to see several more of these babies,” Steingreaber said. “They serve a great product. They know that they can't be everything to everybody. But they want to serve great coffee and they do.”

No Offense to Me. The coffee is still good.

I was on my way to Meijers Garden the other day and saw the same billboard. I thought the same thing....time to get this changed! We had a big job in changing the name, but we still have a few things out there....including some store signs and these billbaords. I love this picture!

BIGGBY COFFEE _- Kenosha

Well, I am about ready to go....but I just wanted to drop a line. I have been here about 2 hours...and it is one of the most pleasant experiences I have had in a BIGGBY COFFEE. I hinted at it earlier, but I want to say it again and a little differently....this reminds me a lot of the first store, not in it's physical appearance, but the way the people are. There is strong personality mixed with a very clear sense of community...it feels good to just be in here, ya'know? I love it, and the only thing that could make it better....is if was closer to my home. Or, maybe I should just move here...'course I would have to adjust to the idea of bein' called a Cheesehead (ouch)... :)

I came here to see one of my favorite blog-watchers, before she moves to Fond du Lac (sp?), but alas she is off on a day trip today. When she found out I was here (from the staff and customers), she called me to let me know the she was sorry to have missed me....it was all very cool....one of the coolest things in a long time....I love this place.

I have several videos to download from this trip....but I won't get back till late, and tommorrow we have a Discovery Day first thing in the morning. Look for them sometime in the late afternoon. Back on the road....

BIGGBY COFFEE -- Big Rapids

Wow, it was nice to get up there....and these guys (gals) have a beautiful store and a great location. I had a chance to drive around campus and so on....They are the best game in town!!!

They will open two weeks from today....check it out!
