The Vision Behind Maeve’s Place Coffee Shop In New York Is Sure To Inspire You

New York has no shortage of fantastic coffee shops, but few of them have the unique mission and story of Maeve’s Place. If you’re passing through Phoenicia, New York, it’s a charming stop where you can enjoy a great breakfast, but it’s also a venture with a unique mission.

Maeve’s Place was originally opened by Iva Walsh, who wanted to open a coffee shop and café for her daughter, Maeve, who has Down Syndrome.
