One coffeeshop brings the community together MELISSA WHITLER | Staff Writer editor@dallasvoice.com These days, coffee shops have become more than just a place to get your morning caffeine.
They’re also spaces to gather and find community. Located in the Gayborhood, Union Coffee has become a hub for LGBTQ folks in Dallas.
The shop opened in 2012, sponsored by the Oak Lawn United Methodist Church, and has flourished since its opening. In addition to serving delicious drinks, the coffee shop works to support the local community.
Touted as “the most generous cup of coffee in Dallas,” the proof is in the brewing as they donate more than $25,000 a year to care for the unsheltered population of Dallas.
