Skald Coffee ~ Our Story ~

In Norse culture, a Skald was a poet, or storyteller, who through song and story built the reputation of the great men and women of their day. This storytelling is the inspiration behind Skald Coffee and Food Truck – not only a great cup of coffee, but also a story.

We believe in strengthening relationships with great coffee and good food; building connections face-to-face and enjoying the seemingly lost art of storytelling.

We encourage you to slow down, enjoy your coffee, and connect with those you love.

Everyone has a story. Tell yours.
