Coffeeholics, a beloved café in Blacksburg, known for its unique coffee drinks and cozy atmosphere, has recently captured the community’s attention with an impressive new addition—a colossal mural. Owners Lilly and Al wanted something that would resonate with both the town and their shop without overtly advertising their brand. They enlisted artist Jon Murill, who completed the mural in just 10 days without pre-structuring or using extensive tools, showcasing remarkable freestyle artistry. The mural features an owl, symbolizing the nocturnal nature of coffee enthusiasts, and has quickly become a favorite among patrons. Customers are raving about the mural, calling it one of the best art pieces they’ve ever seen. Lilly and Al hope that the mural will not only enhance their café's appeal but also draw more foot traffic to Draper Road, potentially turning it into a local landmark. The couple is excited about future projects and the ongoing evolution of Coffeeholics.
