While the current times are uncharted territory for many of us, it’s important to think of our local businesses during these trying times. Small businesses are what make each and every community so unique, which is why we should do our best to support them when we can.
Small businesses across America are already feeling the financial crunch from coronavirus restrictions that have millions of people taking refuge by staying at home and avoiding unnecessary shopping trips.
While many small businesses have been forced to close their doors, two of our favorite clients, Fiddlers Coffee out of Centralia Washington and Red Leaf Coffee out of Longview Washington have remained open and are committed to serving their communities.
Both establishments have closed their lobbies, but are still offering service through their drive through.
Fiddlers Coffee
Fiddlers Coffee was established in 2004 in Centralia, Washington by a local family of national champion fiddlers whose passion for specialty coffee led to the opening of a community shop and a partnership with Caffé D’arte, an award-winning coffee roastery dedicated to traditional Italian-style espresso.
They emphasize customer satisfaction and vow that customers will always be greeted by friendly staff who are committed to crafting quality drinks and serving them with a smile.
Fiddlers Coffee always goes the extra mile for their customers and community.

Red Leaf Coffee
In 2008, Red Leaf owners, Ray and Melissa Vandervalk, began a journey that would result in the area’s most popular locally-owned coffee house. It started as a simple espresso stand in Woodland. In order to boost business, they decided to remodel, turning the espresso stand into a double sided drive-through. With time and an innovative brand makeover, Red Leaf Organic Coffee began to grow.
The name Red Leaf Organic Coffee and the uniquely themed menu pays tribute to Melissa’s Canadian heritage. Drinks like the Rocky Mountain Mocha, the Maple Vanilla Latte, and the Gold Rush became popular favorites. A new fresh fruit smoothie line was introduced soon after.
Red Leaf Coffee’s mission is to create an exceptional product and connect with their customers in a meaningful way with humor, remarkable service and a genuine smile!
