01 / The story of this place
Make time for these
Uncommon Coffee Roasters was opened in downtown Saugatuck in 1994 by a gay couple, and locals long knew it simply as “the gay coffee shop.” A rainbow bench sits outside, the menu includes Pride and “Love Wins” blends, and the shop supports LGBTQ+ causes. Today it is run by new owners from a coffee-farming family.
