Ready Coffee

READY Coffee, a new independent coffee shop,has opened with enthusiastic customer buzz about its high quality, locally roasted coffees, and unbeatable prices.

While the mood is informal and creative, the owners demonstrate that they are serious about challenging the coffee world with a refreshing take on coffee shops. “We are fully committed to offering customers a quality experience at down-to-earth prices,” said owner Adam Banks, a recent MBA graduate of the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, who wrote his senior business plan on squaring off with the coffee industry at low prices. This research plays out in the logical $1, $2, and $3 drink menu.

The last frontier in the coffee world has to be price; cups of coffee are now normally higher than a gallon of gas,” said Banks. Offering truly outstanding coffee, roasted daily in Chicago, at prices that make sense. Their house brew starts with a “buck cup” for $1.

All of the READY Coffee blends are roasted locally by legendary Chicago coffee roaster Greg Stivers.
