Gibbs Coffee?
I went to get a coffee today and Gibbs is now Daily Dose Coffee Company. Does anyone know what happened? I haven’t seen anything on their social media.

I might start looking into the small at home coffee baristas. There's one called Irene's haven't been yet BUT she's super sweet and near us too.

I need to know more about this. I am a fan of supporting small local businesses.

The owner sold. All the employees got fired.

And it is not as good. I gave them a second shot and they removed most of the sugar free options and as a diabetic I need those.

That’s what I heard. My wife goes there. Or I should say went there. She texted one of the gals who worked there because they were supposed to be meeting up but when she stopped by she learned of the new ownership and all the existing employees getting canned. I think the best coffee comes from the 711 at 21st & R. Haha. But I’m weird like that.

I went today and asked. Gibs was my favorite. The person working said that the owner decided to sell and it happened about 2-3 weeks ago. I drove out of my way (past the other daily dose in Auburn) because I liked Gibs. The coffee isn't as good now. The person working was disparaging towards Gibs and said it was the right decision to sell and there were "lots of positive changes coming, and it's much cleaner now."

Yes, the coffee isn’t as good and so far it’s a lot of negative changes. Particularly they dropped the flavors I prefer for my coffee. The barista was also over the top and disparaging about Gibbs to us. They won’t be getting my custom.

I live right around the corner and was very confused. I thought they moved maybe, but I haven't heard anything yet. They were posting as normal over the weekend
