Classic Rock Coffee 4

Classic Rock Coffee is headquartered in Springfield, Missouri and has been in business since 2011. The company was started as a single storefront to provide a working model that would serve as the headquarters for franchise expansion.

It was created from a love of coffee and a love of great classic rock music. Zeppelin, The Who, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, CCR, Elvis, AC/DC, ZZ Top, Fleetwood Mac ... this list could go on forever.

Since coffee is a stimulant, they thought it made sense to create a concept that is an alternative to the laid back, read a book and take a nap, type of coffee shop. Their tag line says it all: "Our Coffee Rocks!"

Unlike typical laid back coffee shops, they're a rock n roll infused, specialty coffee, java joint. Classic rock music plays through an awesome sound system; espresso based drinks crafted right in front of you; guitars, albums and memorabilia everywhere; and comfy seating. You can get your drink to go, or sit down, relax and get “Comfortably Numb”.

This Is Not For You

Every opportunity isn't a fit for everyone, and that's ok. Here are a few guidelines to help you know if Classic Rock Coffee is NOT for you.

  1. You are looking for a mobile coffee bar.
  2. You are either are not $50k liquid or do not have at least a $400k net worth. We are not trying to be pompous … we just want our owners to have the right financial backing.
  3. You would like relax in a coffee house from this day forward. Is it cool to own one? Yes. Will people talk about you in your city? Probably. Is it automated? Nope. It takes work and commitment.
  4. You are interested in modifying the concept.
  5. You want to put a store in a community with less than 50,000 people. We're not sure it would work, and we don't want you to risk you money hoping it would.
