Celebrate National Coffee Day with a Trip to Ossining's Newest Business

OSSINING, NY — What better way to "celebrate" National Coffee Day than a visit to a new, local, downtown business.

Luis and Kathryn Corenas opened First Village Coffee on Sept. 26. As they say on Facebook,

First Village Coffee will serve as a classic (yet unique to the area) coffeehouse and social hub where locals and destination seekers alike enjoy the highest-quality specialty coffee and teas, pastries, art, music, community, and ambience. We envision a space that reflects the diversity, culture, and inclusive vibe of Ossining and serves as a 'home base' for all of our awesome residents: art from local artists and students will adorn the walls, open mic nights for local musicians, pop-up community dinners prepared by local culinary artisans; a one-stop coffee and cultural spot for ALL. And we're looking forward to you being a part of it!!

Their coffee roasting partner is Irving Farm Coffee Roasters. They're getting rave reviews.

Now, the folks who run the online National Day Calendar say they were unable to find the origin of National Coffee Day. But given the freebies being handed out by big national chain coffee and convenience stores. we can imagine.

And who cares? Visit First Village Coffee, at 123 Main St., open 6AM-6PM.
