In 1986, Marylou Sandry opened up the first Marylou's Coffee in Hanover, Massachusetts. After 30 years the first Marylou's location is now one of many cafés -- 28 in Massachusetts and even eight locations expanding into Rhode Island. I am lucky to say I have worked for the company for two and a half years now, and the Hanover location has been totally redone. The chain is growing just as much as our love for the Funky Fanabla. You are beyond lucky if a Marylou's Coffee is in your area since I have missed my favorite coffee deeply. I can not only wait to have a large Cinnamon Hazelnut Fluff with mocha when I return but coming back to work with the best co-workers as well!
Marylou's is an absolute addiction, it is a coffee shop for all ages. Ranging from cotton candy kidz creamz, small coffee black with a flat lid, and the Girl Scout Cookie with whip cream on top. If you like coffee or any sort of beverage, you can find it here. Not only that but pastries and breakfast sandwiches galore. The coffees range from plain flavors, specialties, extra specialties and everything else in between. One of my favorites is the iced blue raspberry Red Bull, tastes like summer and gets you just as wired for the day as coffee. Not only that but a one coffee combo sadly taken off the menu, a Blueberry Cooler, is also a personal favorite of mine.
Marylou's has character, it was built in a vintage home and once newspaper store, and it began such a huge success over the last 30 years. Thousands of people have worked for the company and I am so happy to say I am one of them. The atmosphere, daily customers and the people I work with make it the best job ever. My friends do not understand why I enjoy coming into work at 5:15 a.m. to open up, and all I can say is "Well, I love my job." I am so excited to work in a beautiful new store this summer, it may be crazy, but it is so worth it. Also, shout out to the best manager ever Janelle King, who everyone can agree puts a smile on their face - and who can forget about Mal? My favorites.
These coffees taste like no other, our beans are flavored and smell delicious the second you put them in the grinder. I did not even like coffee before I started working here -- so as I said before, Marylou's is for everyone. Not to mention totally worth your buck, especially with our signature Big Louie that is a crowd favorite -- extra large size coffee for a great price.
If you have never tried a Marylou's Coffee, I am sending you on a mission to go and find the closest location. If you live in the South Shore, you should have one at every corner and do not take that for granted. If you see this Marylou, please expand out into Worcester, it is a big college town, with a lot of kids missing your specialty coffee. Live. Love. Marylou's.
Your favorite Marylou's girl
Ready for another great Summer!
