The day stay-at-home orders were announced in the City of St. Louis and St. Louis County to weather the storm of COVID-19, Patrick and Spencer Clapp were signing the final paperwork to open their coffeeshop.

“It was a lifesaver,” Patrick said. “In a time when everything was so depressing and uncertain for everybody and nobody knows what’s happening, we were lucky to be able to work 10 to 12 hours a day, keeping our mind on the prize.”
