Today I visited a new store in Newtown/Langhorne by the name of OneCupJoe. Since my blog is generally about unique experiences in Bucks County and I'm a huge fan of shopping small and supporting local, I think it qualifies as a post.
Got a Keurig? Well then, do I have the place for you!
Introducing... OneCupJoe
OneCupJoe is a unique concept in coffee-selling developed by two local businessmen. The original store in Bensalem is celebrating its one year birthday, and I had the pleasure of spending some time with co-owner Jeremy Zevin at the six month old Newtown location. Here is what I learned:
OneCupJoe sells only single-serve coffee pods. Not only are there interesting types and flavors you can't readily get in one place, get this... YOU CAN MIX AND MATCH.
Walk in to the brightly lit store, grab a specially made orange "K-cup" holder, and choose 24 of your own personal favorites from 265 different types of coffee and tea for just $14.99. (I did the math.) (It's 62 cents a cup.)
Store Supervisor Jenny helps stock the Newtown shop.
Again, these guys aren't just offering the same K-cups you see for sale at the big-box stores. They're innovators in researching and obtaining the newest and very best in the industry. For instance, Lavazza, the icon of fine Italian coffee, finally brought their 100+ years of roasting to a K-Cup... and OneCupJoe began to carry it the very next week!
And when Tim Horton's (Canada) new medium-roast French Vanilla coffee became available... they grabbed it and stocked that too.
OneCupJoe also sells K-cups from Brooklyn based micro roasters Brooklyn Beanery, boasts an organic line of coffee pods by Marley, and they just began to carry the only loose leaf tea available in individual brewing cups. Plus, if you're a fan of The Food Network like me, there are some really bangin' flavors put out by Emeril, Wolfgang Puck, The Cake Boss, and one of my secret crushes, Guy Fieri. (swoon)
This time of year it's all about the Pumpkin Pie and Maple Sleigh!
In summer, Green Mountain's Island Coconut is one of their best sellers.
Celebrate One Cup Joe's birthday weekend and get a scratch off ticket with your purchase through Sunday Oct. 12.
With so many Decaf drinkers out there, they have a huge allotment of Decaf cups.
Best gift under $20 including tax EVER.
I had a blast making up a gift box for my best friend Kathy. I chose 22 coffees and 2 loose leaf teas.
Tried some Cinnabon flavored coffee while I was there too.
Picked these out for a male friend. Yeah, they have flavors for dudes too.

Ahhhh.... now I can rightfully dream of Guy Fieri while having my morning coffee...
I've often walked along the Delaware Canal near Washington Crossing National Park, or right outside the borough of Yardley, but this weekend I discovered a new portion of the trail that is only two minutes from my house! I never knew the trail continued so far South. Turns out the Delaware Canal path runs 60 miles from Bristol, Bucks County to Easton, PA and is the only continuous intact canal remaining from the historic canal-building era of the 1800's. Here's just a little of the scenery I saw along the way. I did pass a few people out running or biking, but it was incredibly peaceful. I can't wait to go back again soon.
