About Us

Josiah was born and brewed in Boone NC . He met Meredith as she was serving coffee on Appstate Campus and they settled into this beautiful mountain town. Together they founded Local Lion in Spring of 2012. After 10 years of Coffee Roasting and Scratch-made Doughnut making they expanded into a downtown location featuring Cacao Roasting and Wine. In every business, the endeavor to host community is central to their vision and ethos.
