Our History
Dating back to the early 90s, the historic Ardmore neighborhood has always had a cozy place for the community to enjoy a cup of coffee. Over the years, Ardmore Coffee has had various owners and gone by a few different names, but has always been nestled in the same area of the city. In July of 2013, the coffee shop was bought by a new owner and the name officially changed to Ardmore Coffee, which still stands today. On September 10th, 2023, Ardmore Coffee was bought by two local college students, Blake & Leah Reiner, who were passionate about coffee and dreamed of owning their own shop one day. Despite being full-time students at the time, they embraced the challenges of small business owners and have loved every step of the way, while also getting to know the community of Winston-Salem!
