☕️ New Coffee Shop in Old Salem
New Coffee in Old Salem
Lot 63, a new coffee shop and taproom in Old Salem, had its soft opening this weekend!
Background: Two years ago, a group of young Moravians began dreaming of creating a space where friendships and community could be formed. The perfect opportunity arose when the Moravian Book and Gift Store closed in March 2023, and a few months later, Lot 63 was born!
Menu: Lot 63 serves coffee and teas, Moravian cookies and cheese straws from Wilkerson’s Bakery, and exclusive items like soft pretzels, gourmet cookies, and a rotating selection of baked goods. After Lot 63 acquires its liquor license, it will serve tap beers from Radar Brewing Company, German imports, and wines.
Upcoming: In the coming months, the downstairs space will become a retail area featuring items from Wilkerson’s Bakery, Camel City Goods, and a rotating selection of goods from local artisans.
Hours: Monday to Sunday, 7 AM - 3 PM. Hours will be extended after Lot 63’s soft opening phase.
Location: 614 S Main St., Winston-Salem
