Brewed Awakenings Coffee House opened its doors June of 1996 in the center of Johnston RI. David J. Levesque, Owner and President, had a vision for a coffeehouse that would serve the best cup of coffee in town and be a gathering place for the locals. The plan was simple: provide the highest quality products to be served by friendly, outgoing employees in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The concept took off, and before long Dave added a second location in Providence that had a five year run, but ultimately closed due to challenges and constraints within the area. South County Commons Plaza in Wakefield was opened in November of 2003. Over the next several years, Brewed expanded its menu to include specialty frozen drinks, lunch & breakfast sandwiches, and pastries, just to name a few. The next location was completed in April of 2010 at the Centre of Cherry Hill, the first store with a drive-thru. Located just 1 mile from the original store, it has become another gathering place in the town of Johnston. In April of 2012, we opened our largest store to date, near Sockanossett Crossroads in Cranston on Pontiac Avenue, which boasts the “tallest” coffee cup in the state of RI. Currently we are working on the next location which will be on Bald Hill Road in Warwick. Stay tuned for more details! We are proud of the progress we have made over the years, from just two employees, Kay & Joe Levesque (Dave’s mom & dad) to over 100 employees today. Brewed is a successful business because of our loyal customers and our hardworking employees. Dave has continued to grow, while still sticking to his original plan to be the Best Coffee House in the State.
