Coffeebar Truckee

Coffeebar is the fuel that propels you throughout your day. Inspired by the Italian coffeebar culture, we believe we are Hospitalians first, baristas and chefs second. Making people feel good is our M.O. Founded in Truckee, CA in 2010, Coffeebar was built off of over two decades of coffee industry knowledge. But at the end of the day, we're only as good as the next cup we make.

Some of the best coffee plants come from being grown in the mountains at high altitudes - more struggle, more pressure, more challenges create a stronger, complex crop. Founder Greg Buchheister was raised on the mountains. As a champion ski racer in Winter Park, Colorado he learned his life lessons on the slopes: the constant pursuit of excellence, the rewards of taking risks, that luck favors the prepared, and that sometimes to open doors, you just have to take the sledgehammer to the wall yourself. In 1998, while skiing and working in an Italian restaurant, Greg created his own opportunities by importing coffee from Italy, first as wholesale and then by opening cafés. In two decades, he had opened twenty coffee concepts in Colorado, California and Nevada.
