New coffee shop opens downtown
2 May 2018
A new coffee shop calling downtown Beatrice home celebrated its grand opening last month.
The Coffee Bistro’s first official day of business at the beginning of April welcomed the public to try its food and drink offerings.
Mark Ruby, who co-owns the business, said The Coffee Bistro will offer a variety of lunch and breakfast menu items, in addition to coffee and other drinks.
“Our menu is designed for fast lunches when you don’t have much time to eat,” he said. “We have some breakfast sandwiches that we make here and we have scones and muffins, then for lunch we do paninis, wraps and soups.
“We use those as our main menu. It’s designed to be quick so you can get in and out if you need to or stay as long as you like.”
