Many of our customers have asked if Dancing Mule Coffee Company is a franchise or chain. We choose to take this as a compliment in regard to the good things corporate stores can provide like being clean and well organized with an easy to read menu.
Dancing Mule Coffee is a Springfield, Missouri original and our store at 1945 S. Glenstone is the first and only.
We have no immediate plans for world domination of specialty coffee. We want to provide the quality of coffee a connoisseur would enjoy without being snobbish. We take our coffee seriously without being too serious about ourselves. The name Dancing Mule is intended to be unique, memorable, and fun.
- The Dancing part of the name comes from the legend of the discovery of coffee about Kaldi and his Dancing Goats (read our version by clicking here).
- The mule is the Missouri state animal and provides an Ozarks flavor to the name.
- ‘Stubborn About Great Coffee’ just like a Southwest Missourian should be.
