Our friends at Whole Foods Market included us in their “Supporting Local” farm to market program. The feature includes a photo of Charlie Mustard, Jittery Joe’s Coffee Roast Master, and mentions our passion for cycling. Look for it the next time you are at a Whole Foods Market near you and pick up a can of micro-roasted Jittery Joe’s Coffee.
At Jittery Joe’s, you know we love being a big part of the community. And definitely the cycling community.
And this month’s Bicycling, the World’s Leading Bike Magazine, features us and our amazing, scenic hometown of Athens, Georgia. The editor of Bicycling chooses Jittery Joe’s as her everyday fuel at our New York location and says that our coffee “revolutionized my midday buzz.”
The article also highlights our friends at Five Star Day Cafe, and Ike & Jane’s (who both serve our coffee), and Terrapin Beer Company (with whom we’ve collaborated to do Wake & Bake and Depth Charge… ring a taste bud?)
The article mentions our two coffee blends that support the cycling community: Alternative Fuel, which benefits Bike Athens and Morning Ride, which benefits our Professional Cycling Team Mountain Khakis fueled by Jittery Joe’s.
Familiar with the comforting sights and sounds of cozy Athens? The article details the great rides in the Classic City. Love to ride? Try ‘em out. Wanna chill? Grab a cup of joe and enjoy the Athens atmosphere.
So, check us out on newsstands everywhere! It’s the Bicycling Spring Training Issue, March 2010.

To us, success means our ability to do what we love every day: bringing you the most delicious coffee possible and serving our community in the best ways we can.

Here at Jittery Joe’s, we have another exciting collaboration to speak of. This time with art-savvy, coffee-drinking SCAD.
We’ve paired with Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) for a unique blend: SCAD’s Slam-N-Study. Collaborating with SCAD, we enlisted the college’s communication arts students in developing the packaging concept. The final illustration was created by sequential art student Andy J Hirsch. You go, Andy!
We thought this project would be a great opportunity to include SCAD students in the creative process – to bring their work out of the classroom and into the real world. It was another chance for us to connect with the students, too. We’re proud to spread the joy of our delicious new organic Slam-N-Study blend and to take part in this collaboration with young artists. Read the official press on the SCAD website.

Everyone’s talking about the new Joe in town: even The New York Times. Their weekend edition heralded the opening of our Jittery Joe’s Coffee in New York City with a teaser of the shining new store. With our location adjoining LIM College, the article paints this southern import as a haven for tired students and locals alike. As always, this Jittery Joe’s Coffee location promises to brew up the energy for creative minds. Check out the scoop here, and if you’re in town, drop by and see us for a little bit of down-home goodness.
Jeff Holland mentions the upcoming release of Depth Charge Espresso Milk Stout in his Creative Loafing article “Talking Head: Terrapin gets busy.” Look for the Depth Charge Espresso Milk Stout and Coffee in September. Read the full article to learn more about the collaboration and other great projects out at Terrapin.
“…Depth Charge Espresso Milk Stout, brewed as part of the Midnight Project, an on-going collaboration with Left Hand Brewing Company in Colorado. Last year, the Terrapin folks flew out to Longmont to create Terra-Rye’ZD, a black rye lager. This year, the Left Hand crew came east. Left Hand is known for its milk stout, brewed with lactose sugar for a creamy texture, and Terrapin has experience with coffee through its “Wake n Bake” Imperial Stout, so this is a natural meeting of the minds. As usual, the coffee was provided by local Athens roasters Jittery Joe’s.”
While recent UGA grad Brendan Wales prepared to spend a month this summer backpacking around Europe, he was inspired to bring Jittery Joe’s Coffee, his own everyday fuel, along for the ride. “I love what Jittery Joe’s stands for and I would like to help spread its vision,” he said. Once he returned from his trip we were excited to see the results.
Check out Brendan’s photos below, and be sure to remember your everyday fuel on your next journey!

We’re pleased to share the news that we’ve opened a Jittery Joe’s Coffee in the heart of New York City. The new location is in midtown Manhattan’s Laboratory Institute of Merchandising (LIM) College.
We’re very excited about this new store as it’s our first (hopefully of many) outside of the southeast. While our coffee has gained a following through our web store and our availability in Whole Foods Markets and bike shops across the country, we look forward to sharing our passion and our coffee with a whole new audience.
The new location opened August 6th at 216 East 45th Street. We hope you’ll come out and visit us!
