COVID-19 UPDATE

3/19/2020

Hello All,

As we all try to navigate through this unprecedented time, I wanted to share some of the decisions we have made here in the shop to ensure the safety and protection of our customers and employees.

We are now designated a pickup location only. In order serve our customers that still want delicious locally roasted coffee and espresso beverages and excellent teas, we are launching our online order platform. This platform is in its infancy so please have patience as we all work through these uncertain times.

I will post the link to the online order system on our website, Instagram, and Facebook in the coming hours.

We will also be available by phone 214.705.0100 if you have questions or need to place an order.

We have also decided to close the cafe at 5:00 pm everyday, opening hours will remain as normal.

Thanks for your continued support, remember to shop as local as you can.

Regards,

Michael Salazar

Our Responsibility During CovID-19

To our valued customers, neighbors, and friends,

While we strive to keep a clean and customer-friendly environment on a daily basis, we know that times like this call for additional measures. This is why we have heightened our cleaning and sanitizing protocols here in the café.
In addition to our standard cleaning practices we will be instituting the following until further notice:
STANDARD PROCEDURES:

We change our sanitizer solution every hour or as needed to maintain the proper strength recommended by food safety standards.
We will continue to wash our hands regularly in accordance to food safety protocols.
We will continue to wipe down all high-touch surfaces after they have been used.
We will continue to ensure our restrooms are cleaned and sanitized throughout the day.
Additional procedures are in place, if you have any questions regarding our daily procedures please feel free to ask.

NEW PROCEDURES

We have removed all condiments, stir sticks, creamer, etc. from our condiment bar to lessen the number of hands on these surfaces. If need these items in your drink, please ask our baristas and they can put them in for you or hand them to you.
We will not use ceramic mugs, for-here plates, reusable silverware, etc. We want to limit the handing of used serve ware back and forth to our staff.

As small businesses, we survive on the patronage of our local communities and we want you to know that we are doing our part to create a sense of normalcy in these otherwise abnormal times.

Thank you again for your continued support.

The Lounge Coffee and Tea Bar is excited to be partnering with Lovepacs, an organization that provides breakfast, lunch, and snacks to food insecure children in Frisco ISD when schools are closed for long breaks. During these long breaks, (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Spring Break, and Summer School) the children are not able receive the free and reduced meals provided by the schools.

Lovepacs ensures each child they serve receives a box of food that meets nutritional standards and they make sure they have enough food to last them throughout the break.  Lovepacs runs solely on local donations, without which they would not be able to exist. This is why we at The Lounge Coffee and Tea Bar are asking our amazing customers to help.

Throughout the next several weeks we will be accepting donations of the following canned food items here in the cafe.

Items Needed:
Green Beans (15 oz cans)
Corn (15 oz cans)
Fruit (15 oz cans)
Mixed Vegetables (15 oz cans)
Canned Pasta (E.g., Chef Boyardee)   (15 oz cans)
Canned Pork & Beans (15 oz cans)
Chili with Beans (15 oz cans)
