Newtown native Andrew Dittman intentionally founded Calm Waters Coffee during 2015, along with his wife, Jodi, as a place for people who turn coffee into a ritual and a café into a second home. They still support that mission every day. 

Jodi says Calm Waters was born along the Flambeau River as they sipped campfire coffee in quiet, predawn hours.

During 2022, while stepping into the spot that previously was The Coffee Room at 15 S. State St., Andrew and Jodi expanded clientele from their original coffee shop in Bristol. Jeremy Keating joined them as co-owner/COO.

"We work on crafting enjoyable coffee experiences," assures Andrew. "It differs from person to person, but at the end of the day, our core mission's simple and wholly inclusive: love yourself, love others. Our hope is no matter what's happening in your life, when you walk into our shop or brew our coffee at home, you'll find in that moment a powerful peace, one to carry with you into the rest of your day."

Additionally, this vibey Newtown cafe can be rented as a cozy, perfect backdrop for baby showers, birthday parties or creative workshops — or for reading Newtown City Lifestyle
