About Sweetwaters Coffee And Tea
Wei and Lisa Bee founded the original Sweetwaters in 1993 in downtown Ann Arbor near their alma mater, the University of Michigan. Inspired by her love of food and drink and inspired by her creativity, Sweetwaters was conceived and brought to life. A great result:
A coffee house like Wei and Lisa celebrates classic café fare along with globally inspired coffees and teas in a classy and friendly environment.
Today, both are an integral part of Sweetwaters’ daily life through business, community engagement, and the discovery of inspiring products for our guests. If you don’t mind, come see her and say hello. They are likely chatting with one of the many regulars who have since become friends.
The Founders of Sweetwaters Coffee And Tea
Wei
Favorite Drink:
A bold yet cute, dragon eye.
Favorite Dessert:
OMG chocolate cake. Sometimes you need a lot of chocolate.
Favorite Aspects of Sweetwaters
Sweetwaters is a melting pot of communities and we are all having a great time!
Lisa
Favorite Drink:
Napali Brew is reminiscent of the Napali Coast in Hawaii, where it gets its name.
Favorite Snack:
Strawberry Bliss Ice Dragon. Most people mistake this for a drink, but for me, it’s a healthy and easy snack – strawberries mixed with yogurt – a one-handed treat in a cup.
Favorite Side of Sweetwaters:
“Breakfast Club” (regulars in the morning). They are the funniest and wake up at 7 am. We don’t see each other very often, but when we do, it always makes me smile.
