Dogs of Blue Bottle: A Retrospective

Our favorite coffee companions are always eager to walk to the neighborhood cafe.

It started with sweet Ivy, James’s pup and the very first #dogofbluebottle, seen here in front of our Hayes Valley Kiosk.

It’s Valentine’s Day—that saccharine, hot-pink day of the year in which we feel alternately terrible and lonely, or smugly coupled and ecstatic. Call us skeptics, but we’re not much for this day of cupid’s arrows and candy hearts (they don’t go great with coffee).

Something that we can really get behind, though? The love of our Number One Companions, those kindred beings who are with us through our lonely days and joyous celebrations—who are always excited about the morning stroll to the neighborhood cafe. Here’s to you, beloved canine partners-in-crime. You’ve made #dogsofbluebottle a great place to be, every day, all year.
