Our Story

Welcome to the heart and soul of Lemont, where the magic of coffee comes to life. At Folklore Coffee, we're more than just a place to get your daily caffeine fix – we're a community, a haven, and a passion.

Our journey began with a dream: to create a coffee destination that transcends the ordinary. Founded by Tess and with the never-ending support of her husband, Justin, Folklore Coffee was born from a shared love for exceptional coffee and a deep-rooted commitment to our community.

Our beans are carefully sourced from around the world, each one telling a story of its origin. We take pride in crafting each cup with precision and care, bringing out the unique flavors and aromas that make coffee a true art form.

But Folklore Coffee is more than just coffee. It's a cozy retreat where conversations flow freely, where friendships are forged, and where inspiration strikes. Our warm and inviting space is a testament to our dedication to creating an environment that fosters connection, creativity, and the simple joy of living in the moment.

We believe in giving back to the world that has given us so much. That's why we're committed to ethical sourcing, supporting local artisans, and working towards minimizing our environmental impact.

So, whether you're a coffee connoisseur, an artist seeking inspiration, or simply someone looking for a moment of respite in a fast-paced world, we invite you to join us at Folklore Coffee. Step into our world and experience the magic of coffee.
