A new café is opening in downtown Kelowna, and the owner is inviting the community to meet the gang.

Deville Coffee is opening its first location in B.C., with four other locations in the works across the province, including one in downtown Vancouver. The café replaces Starbucks on the corner of Bernard Avenue and Pandosy Street in a heritage building, which originally housed the city91Ƶs first drugstore in 1901.

Deville Coffee is a locally owned chain, with Kelowna resident Jenna Kopperson heading the downtown location.

91ƵWe are super excited to bring Deville Coffee to Kelowna,91Ƶ she said.

91ƵThe café looks amazing, and we can91Ƶt wait to meet our customers and fellow businesses in the neighbourhood.91Ƶ

To celebrate its grand opening on Oct. 14, all beverages will be by donation, with 100 per cent of the proceeds going to Kelowna-based non-profit Mamas for Mamas, which helps vulnerable families who may be experiencing poverty-related issues.

91ƵWe are so pleased to support Mamas for Mamas at the grand opening, and we appreciate the community91Ƶs support,91Ƶ she said.

91ƵWe invite everyone to come visit us that day, say hello, check out the café, and support a wonderful cause.91Ƶ

Deville Coffee was founded by Paul Brassard and Mark Nolan in 2008. Other locations are in Alberta.
