Couple crafts coffee house to ‘chill, catch up and recharge’ | TSD Memphis

By Brianna A. Smith, TSD Memphis

In an effort to move away from supporting problematic businesses while circulating the Black dollar, Ken and Mary Olds, a husband and wife duo, are set to open Muggin Coffee House in the Whitehaven area July 6.

“Muggin is a vibe. A way of life in Memphis,” said Mary Olds.

Muggin’ is a term used to describe a mood of extreme confidence and bravado. It is something very akin to the Memphis culture. And then there is the literal mug that you drink from.

“Muggin’ is a play on words to pay homage to Memphis but also to describe what you’d actually put your coffee in,” Mary said.
