Nathan Kitner, owner of Mia Piccola, is set to open a second location in Knoxville before Christmas. This new shop will be located at 1328 N. Broadway, expanding from its current spot inside Southside Garage. The move comes as demand for Mia Piccola's coffee continues to grow, prompting Kitner to adapt his business model multiple times in just two years.
• The new location will be approximately three times larger than the current shop, allowing for more menu items, including pour overs.
• The original shop has no indoor seating, relying on the Southside Garage for customer space.
• Kitner has deep roots in Knoxville's coffee culture, having worked at Pearl on Union and frequented K Brew.
• The expansion aims to serve a broader clientele, especially those who find it difficult to travel to South Knoxville.
This expansion highlights the thriving coffee culture in North Knoxville and reflects the community's support for local businesses. With more space and an expanded menu, Mia Piccola is poised to become a key player in the local coffee scene.
