San Juan is in DA HOUSE!

We got a chance to do a "coffee tour" of Old San Juan—visiting coffee bars to taste some amazing island coffees, from cappuccinos to mochas and macchiatos. All the bars fall into the "third wave" of coffee, which is about elevating the experience with carefully extracted espressos, beautifully textured milk and stellar customer service.

We were very excited about our trip—and now can't wait to return.

3-Year Anniversary

Banana Dang open its doors for the first time on November 19, 2007.We are officially 3-years old! For our anniversary, we got a face lift. Yes, we got a new paint job on the exterior of ourbuilding and a brand new store sign.

We started the DIY project in late-September and finally put the last drops of paint on this week. Mario and Edward sweated every day for two months. We are so happy it's finally over!

Now...back to the grind (coffee, that is.)

First Vietnamese visit!

As some of you may know, Banana Dang is a half-Vietnamese, half-Puerto Rican owned business. The Vietnamese side - "DANG" was excited to get our very first Vietnamese customers–Phu and Brian–recently engaged in Puerto Rico. Congratulations to you both!
