Amarillo College's Washington Street Campus welcomed a brand new business on Thursday as Amarillo coffee favorite Palace Coffee Company opened up a new shop at the school.
Inside of the Washington Street Campus Student Union Building, the brand new Palace Coffee Company location opened. The new coffee shop is operated by Patrick Burns' Palace Coffee Company and has been under development for some time. Members of the Amarillo College Board of Regents approved a lease deal for the shop in 2016, however, unexpected setbacks placed the shop's opening date back on the calendar.
Following its opening, Amarillo Little Theatre academy director, and local celebrity, Jason Crespin was the first person to buy a cup of coffee from the new shop, according to Amarillo College's social media accounts.
The new coffee shop will be open from 7am until 7pm Monday through Thursday, and 7am to 4pm each Friday.
