$5 for $10 Worth of Gourmet Coffee, Espresso Drinks, Paninis, and More at Bear Creek Coffee

Ever since America lost custody of tea in its messy divorce with England, we’ve had to find new liquid sources of caffeine and new neighborhood taxmen. Say no to taxation without caffeination with today’s deal: for $5, you get $10 worth of food and drink at Bear Creek Coffee . When redeeming your Groupon, you will be given a $10 gift card, which can be used over the course of multiple visits to Bear Creek Coffee. This Groupon is only valid for redemption at the Bear Creek Coffee on F Street in Omaha. Bear Creek Coffee ensures freshness in its brews by adhering to a small-batch micro-roasting process that captures flavor and quality better than the bulk roasting processes common at many coffee shops. Savor the caffeine craftsmanship with a to-go cup of coffee ($1.25–$1.75), or bring your own cup ($1–$1.50) and intake the energy-inducing liquid beans. Bear Creek Coffee’s specialty espresso drinks ($3.25–$4.25) tantalizingly trigger taste receptors, with concoctions such as the decadent Seventh Heaven latte, made with white chocolate, caramel, and macadamia nut, or the Nutty Monkey, richly blending chocolate, banana, and macadamia nut into a brew sure to jolt the Jane Goodall dwelling within. Emulsified elixirs such as fruit and superfruit smoothies ($3.25–$4.50) are delicious treats. Guests can skip the liquid binge altogether and satisfy unyielding stomach cravings with sandwiches on Bear Creek Coffee’s lunch menu. Choose from savories such as the smoked turkey wrap with spinach-artichoke spread ($3.79), the teriyaki chicken melt ($5.99), or the namesake nourishment of the Bear Creek Club panini ($5.49) stacked with smoked turkey, ham, bacon, cheddar, monterey jack, mayo, and barbecue sauce hot-pressed between two judgmental marble rye slices. The passionate coffee-teers at Bear Creek are more than stellar baristas—they may even serve up a splash of coffee education with every order to keep customers informed about the adrenaline-packed world of extreme roasting and hot liquid chugging. Redeem today’s Groupon to maintain caffeinated clarity and develop a brain oozing with coffee knowledge for java-themed pub quizzes, courtesy of Bear Creek Coffee. Valid for in-store purchases only.
