Grand Opening of Our New Cafe at Temple University

We’re celebrating the Grand Opening of our new cafe at Temple University with a Pay-As-You-Wish Event! This event will feature prominent Temple alumni, including business owners, professors, university leadership and more.

The event will go in support of the Saxbys Fellowship program at Temple University, which is a scholarship program designed to help students achieve academic goals. All menu items will be pay-as-you-wish. We’ll take everything we earn from the day, match it 100%, and double the impact of the event.

So come out and show your support! Here’s a breakdown of our full Celebrity Barista list:
