Burien Press opened by former Fuel Coffee customers
Posted by Melissa Allison
Here are a couple shots of Burien Press, which opened last month.
Owners Mark Kearns and Erin Williamson were inspired to open the shop by Dani Cone, who owns the Fuel Coffee chain in Seattle.
Kearns, who is also a carpenter, did some beautiful woodworking at the new location, including a deck out back that's labeled "Area of Refuge." (Top photo shows barista Shannyn Fisher serving a customer.)
The new shop carries coffee from Caffe Vita, sandwiches from Domovoi Happy Foods, and pastries from Macrina Bakery. It also sells magazines, logo mugs and little red notebooks with the coffeehouse's catchphrase "Burien Press: Fine coffee, fine print."
Here's where you can find it, not far from these amazing metal sculptures ("The Passage" by Dan Das Mann and Karen Cusolito) that happen to be walking in its general direction:
