Emily Nava has dreamed about owning a coffeehouse since high school. And now she has a café of her own: Espressions in Colleyville.
The quaint coffee shop, located in a rented space in Evergreen Ice Cream Mania, offers signature espresso and coffee drinks for an affordable price. With brewed coffee (including free refills) running at $1 and their signature 12 oz. drinks available for $2.75, these flavorful drinks are a steal.
“I've worked in several places that serve espresso drinks and other coffee variations, and I fell in love with the versatility of it,” Emily says.
After seeing success with her husband's restaurant, The Catch, in Fort Worth, the couple decided to make the next leap in the culinary industry.
“This location was a rare opportunity that we couldn't pass up. The current owner of Ice Cream Mania, Terry, is a good friend of my husband. He had recently purchased the business, and my husband had spoken with him about our dream to open a coffee shop,” Emily says. “He offered to let us rent space in his new Ice Cream Shop to get started on our business, and we took it!”
So next time you walk into the ice cream shop, you'll see a wide variety of Espressions' coffee drinks. Their specialties include custom coffee combinations like their Chunky Monkey, served with banana, caramel and nougat syrup, and traditional favorites like their Café de Olla, a Mexican spiced coffee served with orange zest and sweetened brown sugar.
For those looking for a health-conscious option, try out their Keto Coffee. Made with brewed coffee, coconut oil, Kerrygold butter and heavy whip cream, this delicious concoction is the sweet fix you need to keep strong in your diet.
With treats like rolled ice cream from Ice Cream Mania and flavorful drinks from Espressions, this sweet spot is sure to make the whole family happy.
