History

Established in 2006.

Drink Coffee, Change the World.

Dominican Joe was founded to provide Austin a high-​quality coffee shop while supporting those in need in the Dominican Republic.

We follow fair-​trade practices to produce our organic, Dominican coffee!

The sale of the coffee not only benefits the farmers and their families, but also provides educational opportunities for the children in our partner non-profit’s educational programs. By providing you with quality coffee and by providing a quality education in the Dominican Republic, we aim to help these children and their families rise out of poverty.

Meet the Business Owner

Sharla M.

Business Owner

The Dominican Joe concept was born in early 2005, as a partnership between Mehul Patel (local entrepreneur) and Sharla Megilligan. Their goal was simply to make a difference in the world. The question they faced: could they provide Austin with a high quality coffee shop in a way that made an impact in the world? The vision took shape in early 2006, and on September 19th, after about 18 crazy months, they opened their doors in the heart of Austin at the corner of South Congress and Riverside Drive.
