Sanctuary Coffee & Quilts - Richland

Located at 111 South Pine Street in Richalnd. Telephone 573-855-8300

Opened in January of 2020 in a historic c.1925 church building fully renovated by the owners, this unique little gathering place has everything you might find in an urban coffee shop and more. From the moment you step over the Italian tile entry through gorgeous wooden doors onto the polished concrete floors, you know you are about to have an “experience.” The barista behind the counter offers a welcoming smile along with an assortment of coffee and tea made with a machine built in Italy and shipped over. Espresso, cappuccino, latte, mocha, chai tea, hot tea, trinity, affogato as well as extra shots and ice cream! It is heaven, and the ambiance is elegant but casual.

Internet is available for study groups, book clubs, and just groups of friends.

If coffee is not your passion, then perhaps quilts will bring you to The Sanctuary. Nita Bechtel, the owner, is a quilting guru who has set up a room for classes with fabrics and sewing machines, and in February will be adding a top-of-the-line Innova quilting machine. People may pay a rental fee or may use the machine free of charge with required purchases.
