Metta was started by mother/daughter duo, Amber and Amanda in Andover, MN in June, 2020. It was named “Metta” after the Buddhist meditation that Amber practices while roasting their coffee beans since 2014. Loving-kindness goes into every small, hand-roasted micro-batch.
Metta Coffee Cafe was opened in June of 2020. They served specialty coffees, lattes, bakery items, breakfast, and lunch. In 2022 they received news that their location was eventually going to be needed for some renovations in the building. They had to keep it under wraps until they knew for sure when things were happening. In February of 2023 they got the confirmation and in March of 2023, the cafe doors closed.
Amber and Amanda have been growing their passion for coffee roasting and focusing on Metta Coffee Roasters.
Amber began training and observing at Avant Garden in early May 2023 and is now the the General Manager of the coffee bar “Metta in Avant Garden”, under the ownership of Jenni. Avant Garden has been a staple in downtown Anoka for many years. There have been so many amazing changes during this transition including the bookstore moving mainly upstairs, more seating downstairs, mugs available, new drinks, a non-smoking patio, wonderful children and adult events through both Metta & Avant Garden.
Amanda joined Amber behind the coffee bar once again in February as a part-time barista at the Metta Coffee Bar inside Avant Garden.
We are so excited and grateful to have found brick and mortar shops once again to sell Metta!
