Oh, how good times fly: Handsome Coffee Roasters is turning one year young, and to celebrate, the shop will be pouring free coffees today from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. So maybe take a detour on your way to work this morning, or go on a long coffee break this afternoon. It'll be worth it.

The party doesn't end today, though.

To cap off its birthday week, the crew will host a block party on Friday from 7 p.m. to “late” that will include music and Guerrilla Tacos. Coffee and tacos: What else would you want on a Friday night? Happy birthday, Handsome. Here's to many, many more fantastic cups of coffee.
