FAQ
Common Questions About Winfield Street Coffee Franchising
What is the history of Winfield Street Coffee?
Winfield Delicatessen was there… in its fourth owner since 1925, the current operator had had enough of the business and wanted to sell it. This neighborhood deli was nested in East Norwalk, on Winfield Street, and was very low-key, but with a steady stream of regular customers and a great reputation… perfect for an ambitious young new father that wanted to spend evenings with the young family. It needed a fresh coat of paint, some love, and affection, but the bones were good and it allowed me an income to support my family. It was September 13, 2015, 33 days after my wife gave birth to my first son, that I sold my first subs at the original Winfield Street Deli.
