History

[edit]

Storyville was established on Bainbridge Island in 2006. The company announced plans to operate at Pike Place Market in 2013, occupying the space which previously housed Chez Shea.[4][5] The business Storyville's third coffee shop opened in Queen Anne in 2014.[6] The Queen Anne location has since closed and was replaced by Café Hagen.[citation needed]
