Support Us

We are finally at the fund raising stage in our journey and we need your support. We are looking for donations to help cover initial cost of equipment, supplies, and renovations for our cafe. Any amount, big or small, would mean the world to us and help turn our vision and dream into a thriving space in the community. In return, we promise to keep you updated on our progress and, of course, reward you with some incredible coffee. We truly appreciate your support and can’t wait to share this journey with you!

Who Are We

Family. The Lema family specifically. It would be safe to say that the Lemas have always been in the people business. We’ve made it the family legacy to be part of bettering the lives of each and every person we meet. Tall order, to be sure, and yet, we think you’d find a lot of folks who say that’s the absolute truth. Whether it be in our churches, our careers, or on our city streets. We care. We impact. We love.

We’re taking that radical desire to better lives and pouring it into the corner of Center and Main. We’re aiming to open a coffee to cocktails cafe in the space attached to Hendricks Live. The Lemas have had this vision and this desire for some time. For Lynn and Mike, it has been an idea we’ve had since we got married thirty years ago. For Matt and Aubrey it’s been a recurring dream for years as well.

Now, we know everyone is different. But for us, coffee and craft beverages aren’t just something you get in a drive through. They’re not something simply purchased and consumed. They should be part of an experience. Even if it only lasts a moment. We want to help you have that experience, and firmly believe the place you have those moments should feel like an important part of your life.

Mission Statement

At The Green Room Cafe, our mission is to create a welcoming haven where the essence of community, the richness of high-quality coffee, and the delight of exceptional service come together. We are dedicated to serving premium food and beverages, crafted with care and passion. Our commitment to excellence ensures every visit is an experience of warmth, flavor, and unmatched hospitality. We strive to be the heart of our community, where every cup tells a story and every customer leaves with a smile.

Road to Opening

Where are we at currently? As of today, we’ve made great progress toward getting the doors open, and as much as we would love to simply hit the ground running, we know that if we want to succeed then these things take planning and time.

-We have signed the lease for the space!

-And are currently organizing all the details of the build out and decor.

-We have chosen a Coffee Roaster (Generous Coffee) and are fine tuning our menus.

-We are compiling our operating procedures and working on our infrastructure.

-We have an attorney overlooking the details, an architect to finalize the plans, and a community that's onboard with our vision.

There are just a few more details to fall into place and we will be on the way to selecting our Grand Opening date.
