MIDDLEBURGH – The customers were lined up outside the doors on Main Street Saturday for the “soft opening” for the Middleburgh Coffee Company and Scarlet Moon Desserts.
Once inside, customers and visitors could see the fruits of the hard work of Patrick and Daria Mattia who worked on the building for months.
A larger opening is scheduled for April when the shop will be fully operational.
The coffee shop is in the front of the shop with three small tables set up with chairs and two lounge chairs. Regular coffees, espresso, lattes, cappuccinos, and matcha will be available.
Jaden Reed will be the head of the bakery and will be cooking up cookies, croissants (butter, chocolate and other varieties), pies, macaroons, and cakes. The bakery will also carry other desserts, breads, and possibly ice cream. Special order and custom cakes can also be ordered. The bakery is in the back of the shop.
Once fully operational, the shops will be open from 6am to 2pm Monday through Friday and probably 8am to 3pm on Saturday and Sunday.
