More Than Coffee

Our Journey to Opening Tumbleweed Coffee & Bake Shop in Aledo, TX

More Than Coffee

At Tumbleweed Coffee & Bake Shop, we believe a cup of coffee and a freshly baked treat are more than just a quick pick-me-up—they’re moments of connection, sparks of joy, and celebrations of community. As we prepare to open our doors in Aledo, Texas, we’re thrilled to share the story of how our family-owned business, a fusion of our decade-long passion for coffee and baking, came to life.

A Dream Brewed Over a Decade

Our journey began nearly ten years ago with Texas Gourmet Coffee, our private label coffee company dedicated to sourcing specialist-selected, premium coffee beans. We’ve always dreamed of bringing that same quality to a brick-and-mortar coffee shop, a place where people could savor our coffee in a warm, inviting space. We tried twice before to make that vision a reality, but the timing wasn’t right. When life took an unexpected turn and both of us lost our jobs, we saw it as the perfect opportunity to try again—this time, with everything falling into place.

Blending Coffee and Baking with Heart

Tumbleweed Coffee & Bake Shop is the culmination of two passions: Texas Gourmet Coffee, our private label coffee company of nearly a decade, and Tumbleweed Bake Shop, my wife’s home-based cottage law bakery that has delighted customers with baked goods made with organic, non-GMO, dye-free, and additive-free ingredients for years. By blending these ventures, we’re creating a one-of-a-kind space in Aledo that pairs our expertly roasted coffee with wholesome, handcrafted pastries. Every cup of Texas Gourmet Coffee and every bite of our baked goods reflects our commitment to exceptional quality and wellness-focused ingredients.

Building a Community Hub in Aledo

Opening Tumbleweed Coffee & Bake Shop has been a labor of love, driven by our desire to create a welcoming space in Aledo’s vibrant community. We’ve poured our hearts into every detail, from sourcing the finest ingredients to designing a cozy, rustic atmosphere where locals and visitors can feel at home. Whether you’re lingering over a latte, grabbing a quick premium drink, or ordering custom party trays and wholesale baked goods for your next event, we’re here to make every moment special.

More Than Just a Café

Tumbleweed Coffee & Bake Shop is more than a place to grab a coffee—it’s a destination for connection and creativity. We’re excited to offer daily coffee and pastries, wholesale baked goods for local businesses, and custom orders for special occasions, all crafted with our signature organic, additive-free ingredients.
