Coined in 1582 by a German physician who, while traveling in Aleppo, was served the dark brew and described the foreign liquid as, “black as ink.”
An active WELL, dating back to Bible days, was paramount to a town's survival. The daily well run was a gathering place, not unlike today's pubs or local coffee shops. Fast forward to 1988, on a starlit evening in June. Jim, recently home from the miss
ion field of Sri Lanka, asked Angel on a first date. It was then they fell in love over a piping hot cappuccino at a funky coffee house in NJ called The Ink Well. The Jersey Ink Well is going as strong today as its humble beginnings in the 60's. And for us living in the pristine White Mountains, we seek to build a similar legacy. We want The InkWell in Littleton to be more than just a place to grab an exceptional coffee or tea. We want our coffee house to be your coffee home. A place to connect,
To unwind, relax, get inspired,
To feel the welcome. To simply be. And if you happen to find love while sipping a cappuccino...
well, we'd understand completely! Here's to Drinking in Every Moment-
Jim & Angel Anan
The InkWell
