Coastline Coffee Company is opening a second Delaware-area location this winter, the mother-daughter-owned coffee shop announced on September 28. The address of the new spot has not been disclosed, and the business says it is keeping the location under wraps for now.
According to 614now.com, Coastline Coffee Company, currently based at 7775 Dublin Rd. in Delaware, announced it is opening a second location in the Delaware area, with the new shop set to open this winter. The outlet reports that, for now, the location remains a secret, with the company expected to share more as plans take shape. WhatNow reports that the company expects to announce more details about the second location as the project progresses, and that Coastline did not respond to a request for additional details at the time of publication.
The original shop is operated by mother and daughter Kym and Elizabeth Hampton, as reported by NBC4. It serves espresso drinks, matcha, bagel bombs and a variety of breakfast sandwiches, and has become known locally for its creative drinks topped with cereal. In comments cited by the same 614now.com report, the company said, “We never even dreamed of having such an amazing customer base in our first location” — a sign, by its own account, of the demand driving the expansion.
A Historic Market Building With Mid-Century Flair
Coastline's flagship shop sits inside a Delaware market building dating to 1883, per NBC4's reporting. The station notes the business launched in late December, and that the Hamptons renovated the space to reflect a mid-century modern aesthetic, with eclectic furniture and a green-tiled coffee bar.
On its own website, Coastline Coffee Company describes itself simply as a small, locally-owned business. That modest self-description sits alongside bigger ambitions: the 614now.com piece notes the Hamptons have always dreamed of a national chain for Coastline, and the brand has pursued a second shop as a step toward growing the concept beyond Delaware.
Community Roots Alongside Expansion Plans
Even as it eyes growth, Coastline has built its reputation partly through neighborhood programming. The Delaware Gazette reported that the shop held its first open mic night not long after opening, something Hampton said they aimed to hold every two weeks.
For now, Delaware County coffee drinkers are left waiting on specifics. No address, opening date, hours, menu details or staffing plans for the second location have been released, and Coastline has indicated only that more information will come as the project moves forward.
