Hub Bub Coffee launches tomorrow
 |
This Tuesday will see the launch of Hub Bub Coffee, a new cart at 38th and Spruce aiming to tweak West Philly out with a selection of high-end java. The brains behind the mobile operation is Philly native Drew Crockett, a former Deutsche Bank employee who spent more than $45K tricking out an old lunch truck with top-of-the-line barista ware, from Fetco coffeemakers and a La Marzoco espresso machine to stainless steel fixtures and a water filtration system. Hub Bub will be brewing beans from Stumptown, the lauded roaster out of Portland, Oregon; they'll also be pouring iced coffee and chai, tea and lemonade. Snacks will include cinnamon rolls, cookies and muffin tops (yea, the tops!), plus Rice Krispy-type deals from Pub & Kitchen.* Prices will start out at $1.50 for a 12-ounce house brew.
Hub Bub, which'll be sharing info on Twitter, will be pouring Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., but Crockett, a UPenn grad, knows his audience � during exams, he plans to stay open till 1 a.m.
* NOTE: This post has been corrected � P&K will provide only Rice Krispy treats for Hub Bub, with the rest of the baked goods coming from other purveyors.
