About Us

About Us
Our mission is to be the neighborhood's favorite coffee and gift shop. 

We listen to our customers, we bring in favorites and requested items as often as we can, we pay attention to dietary needs and make sure we offer a good variety of Vegan and Gluten Free products and we plan events and activities that accommodate a variety of age groups.

We strive to make a small difference, in some way, every day. We do this by sourcing products and inventory that is environmentally friendly, ethically made and organic when possible. We vet our suppliers and choose to work with companies that share our values. We also help organizations in our community raise money with some fun and easy to manage fundraisers.

We are Julie, Joe and Jessica Collins - Art Shop Coffee, a family business.

Dan's Chocolates
For us, quality goes beyond taste. It includes the ethical sourcing of ingredients. That's why we purchase our cacao via The World Cocoa Foundation, an organization committed to "putting farmers first - promoting agricultural and environmental stewardship, and strengthening development in cocoa-growing communities."

Northwest Biscotti
Northwest biscotti creates the most delicious small batch handcrafted artisan biscotti that is unlike the hard, tasteless industrial biscotti…our focus is on texture, flavor and of course dunk ability. This is “not your grandma's hard biscotti”.

Pocket Latte
Pocket Latte is a mother & son company. With a growing trend in energy products, we noticed that everything either doesn’t work, or it leaves you feeling wired like a robot. So, the goal was to give people an energy bar that's made from the best ingredients, without harmful or synthetic additives, and actually tastes amazing. We turned everyone's favorite drink—coffee—into a solid bar containing a full cup of coffee, in terms of natural caffeine. Let's wake the world up one bar at a time.

Today, you’ll see that aside from a unique and delectable cookie shots, my business is about personability.  The Dirty Cookie is more than a dessert haven, it’s a home for those who are searching for themselves and what they love.
