Brand overview
Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea has been a cornerstone of café culture since Wei and Lisa Bee opened the first location in downtown Ann Arbor in 1993. Inspired by a love of food, drink, and creativity, they built a coffeehouse that celebrates classic café fare alongside globally influenced coffees and teas. Today, the founders remain integral to daily operations and community involvement, ensuring every cafe upholds the brand's commitment to a classic, friendly, and relaxing environment.
