Jack's Stir Brew Coffee
Jack’s Stir Brew Coffee is a coffeehouse chain with seven locations in and around New York City. The first location was opened by owner Jack Mazzola in 2003. It was the first organic, fair trade, shade-grown coffee shop in New York. The coffee is prepared using the house-created "Stir Brew" method.[1] Jack's Stir Brew Coffee also retails Vegan baked goods.[2]
History[edit]
Jack Mazzola invented and patented the Stir Brewer[3] This patented machine automatically agitates the grounds through a standard drip coffee process to reveal smoother and richer flavors than standard drip coffee.[4]
Jack's Stir Brew Coffee opened its first store on 10th Street in New York City in 2003.[5] The South Street Seaport location opened in 2005, and its café on Amagansett Square in 2011 (which sells more products and including its own clothing line launched in 2014[5]).
In 2012, the Front Street location was destroyed in Hurricane Sandy.[6] The Downing Street location opened the following year and launched Jack's baked goods activities. New locations opened inside the Roxy Hotel in New York City[7] and in Sag Harbor, NY in 2016.
The place is known to have a few NY celebrities as regulars (Hilary Swank, Jerry Seinfeld, Alec Baldwin).[5]
In September 2022, Jack's Stir Coffee Brew (seven coffee shops) merged with Vin Sur Vingt Wine Bars (eight wine bars) to form the hospitality group TenEleven Hospitality.[8]

Time Out New York named Jack's Best Indie Coffeehouse.[9]
