A coffee shop is coming to Stovehouse that will employ people with special needs. Charlie Foster’s will be located at Stovehouse and is expected to open this fall. In addition to experienced baristas, Charlie Foster’s will employ people with special needs, explained Austin Jenkins, co-owner of the cafe. Jenkins’ parents founded Merrimack Hall, and he said it was through his love of coffee and his passion for serving those with special needs that he came up with the concept for the coffee shop.

“Coffee has always been a hobby of mine,” said Jenkins. “Merrimack is a place I have always enjoyed being. Everything is falling into place. It’s more than I could ever ask for.” 

Jenkins says the coffee shop will be a colorful space with high quality coffees. There will also be an outdoor seating area.
