A new coffee roastery has opened in Phoenix, Arizona, by Firecreek Coffee Co., originally from Flagstaff. This larger facility features a retail location, an onsite bakery, and an event space. The soft opening has set the stage for a grand celebration in October. Founder Mike Funk has designed the space to feel open and inviting, with high ceilings and natural materials. The roastery includes a state-of-the-art coffee roasting machine, which has been carefully restored and modified.
• The new location spans 7,500 square feet and includes a training facility accredited by the Specialty Coffee Association.
• Funk emphasizes community engagement, planning live events and performances in the new space.
• The company aims to serve the larger Phoenix market, transitioning from Northern Arizona's smaller community.
• A new bakery, Big Park Bakery, will support local restaurants and serve as a test kitchen for Firecreek's products.
This expansion is significant as it allows Firecreek to tap into a much larger market while maintaining its commitment to community and quality. By offering a unique space for events and training, Firecreek aims to enhance the coffee culture in Phoenix and beyond.
