Hola! We are Olla!

In 2017, I started feeling homesick, thinking about my life, my family, my country and my culture; craving cafe de olla, so it made me realize that having just a cup of that Mexican elixir, I would feel better. Talking to myself, I was thinking: why don't you make it for you and for others that feel the same way you do? Immediately after, I thought “Well, you have an opportunity in front of you to make a bunch of people happy that may also be looking for a little piece of their hometown too”.

 I started talking about it with my beloved ones and matching the idea with how good the recipes from Abuelitas could be to use in my new venture, so then I talked to my Abuelita and asked for her recipe after I explained to her my idea, so she told me her recipe with so much passion that I fell in love with the idea to gather different recipes from my sibling's and  friends’  Abuelas too, so that's how we came up with a very traditional menu, compelling old Mexican recipes from decades ago.

Now, I feel so excited to share those precious flavors made with coffee 100% from Mexico with all of you, offering new options to drink your coffee every morning and also introducing new traditional beverages that nobody should miss! 

We specialized in cafe de olla and latino ingredients. After a long journey building the concept and brand to develop our products, we finally opened in 2023 our coffee shop in downtown.

BIG NEWS! Now we’re moving to the West side of San Antonio. We'll announce the OPENING date soon! #homeisasipaway
