Ribbon-cutting today for downtown coffee shop
Downtown Dayton’s newest coffee shop — The Ohio Coffee Co., 46 W. Fifth St. — will host a ribbon-cutting and grand opening celebration at 7 p.m. today, Nov. 6.
The coffee shop and cafe at the corner of South Ludlow and West Fifth streets, owned by Rob Gray and Rebecca Ledingham, opened its doors on Oct. 1. It offers homemade baked goods, organic teas and coffee from a variety of roasters.
Tonight’s festivities will include food samples from the coffee shop’s menu, live music from five acoustic acts, and a display of the work from local artists.
The Ohio Coffee Co. is open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., with extended evening hours on First Fridays. For more information, call (937) 228-5282.

I believe Pacchia’s coffee room is open weekends, the old Oregon Emporium.

I work downtown and have always loved that location. I can’t hang out during the day since I’m working, but if they offered some kind of sandwiches for lunch, I’d love to go and spend an hour there. Best wishes with your new business!

I wish the place had more extended hours; with it only being open during work hours, it isn’t a place I’ll really be able to hang out. Still, I wish them well.

Several recent developments make downtown a friendlier business venue than in recent years: the new bus station has cleaned up 3d & Main and Courthouse Square; the imminent redevelopment of the Arcade; and a new, pro-business Dayton mayor.
