Our home base in Jewett, TX — where coffee and community come together.

How It Started

Headcount® Coffee began as a father-and-daughter tradition — built on early morning coffee dates and the joy of slowing down with a good book. What started as a shared ritual has grown into a thriving roastery and community space where people gather over bold, organic, roast-to-order coffee.

We opened our flagship shop, Read and Roast, in Jewett, TX to bring together our family's love for books, conversation, and fresh beans — and the response has been nothing short of inspiring.

Coffee and books — the pairing that inspired it all.

Why We’re Raising

We’ve built and proven the concept. Our shop has been operating on a part-time basis, and demand continues to grow every week. As we prepare to expand to full-time hours, we’re looking ahead — keeping momentum and laying the groundwork for the next chapter. Now, we’re looking for the right supporters to join us.

• Expand roasting capacity to meet growing demand
• Bring our coffee culture to new markets around Texas
• Launch new offerings, including ready-to-drink and premium-label products
• Create jobs, build community, and stay rooted in small-town values

This is your chance to get in early on a growing brand with heart, hustle, and heat behind it.

Still glowing after hours — our community doesn’t stop when the sun goes down.

Where We’re Going

We’re building Headcount® Coffee into a multi-location brand rooted in the values of small-town connection, but designed to thrive in any community. Whether we’re serving locals in Jewett or expanding into suburban markets like Katy, Fairfield, or Texarkana, our mission stays the same: build real community around a better cup of coffee.

We're not chasing trends, we're building something that lasts.

Innovation’s on tap — from small-town shop to big-time flavor.

Traction That’s Brewing

Founded in 2023, we’ve seen steady growth as more people experience quality coffee, many for the first time. Since opening our storefront in April 2025, both in-store and online sales have climbed steadily, all while operating lean, with a small family-run team.

• New customer growth continues month after month
• Strong return rates with consistent repeat visits
• Word-of-mouth is a top reason new customers visit
• 4,000+ Instagram followers, 600+ Facebook followers, and 300+ email subscribers
• Federally trademarked brand with unique offerings and strong community trust

Even with limited operating hours, we’re seeing the kind of engagement and growth that shows we’re on the right path.
