SUPPORT OUR LOCALLY OWNED BUSINESSES: LIQUID SOUL COFFEE IN MCKENNA

"Liquid Soul Coffee Roasters & Café is family owned and now operating in the state of Washington. We started 12 years ago in San Diego and moved up to the Great Northwest to be close to the serious coffee connoisseur. We have developed our own popular blends and single origin coffees using certified organics and fair trade growers.

The family has a genuine passion for the very best coffee ! We have mastered our roasts to bring out the character from our carefully chosen specialty coffee beans. We work closely with our brokers from all over the world to bring to your table the finest gourmet coffees. Our roasts are consistent and the coffee cupped after every roast to insure our highest standards.

Lindsey ( the daughter ) is the Barista extraordinaire, you should witness her confidence using the La Marzocco FB80 triple group espresso machine. She is also doing her internship as Coffee Roaster. She has been around coffee all her life and enjoys the business immensely. She also is heavily into art and her original paintings. She loves people and it shows with her pleasant demeanor and sense of humor, our guests are always satisfied with her service and beautiful smile.

Martin & Barbara are the shopkeepers. Barbara loves to bake from scratch developing her own organic recipes. Don't be surprised if Barbara is wrapping up some of her very popular " all natural " Carnitas Burritos. She also lives for her four Chihuahua's, they are all characters in their own right. We do have a dog friendly atmosphere thanks to her. Even the pooches can have a rush. haha! Martin is the Master Roaster and Guitar Maestro. He has played guitar all his life and shared the stage with many famous musical artists such as Chaka Khan , Eddie Harris , Poncho Sanchez, Carmine Appice , Luis Gasca , Art Porter Jr. and many more. Come check out his amazing licks someday, he's always there Friday and Saturday nights. Lets not forget his meticulous roasting abilities........See you soon !

Thanks for visiting us,

The Salinas Family ... Martin , Barbara & Lindsey

Hi Steve,

I am so glad that our friends Martin & Barbara Salinas finally got in touch with you, being featured on your blog today. We have been there most weekends since they opened last year for the good food, great music & wonderful company. They understated their food, juices & music.
The CSE Dad's Jam was likewise understated. One of the Dads playing will be Rob, the music teacher there. Ian & I met him during his most recent visit & listened to some of his original music on CD along with a few live tunes at Liquid Soul. He was the guitarist for Ozzie Osborne & several other well known rock bands back in the day.
So many of us who moved to this little arm pit long hungered for some place to go for decent food & fun music to refresh & nourish our spirits. We now have it with Liquid Soul (Bar Cinco too) let's insure that they thrive.
This is like getting to see Eric Clapton or Carlos Santana in an intimate venue. We love these people & their place.

Thank You,
Dan & Karyn
