It all started in the corner of my kitchen.

Hi! I’m Quynh Bui, Founder of Winter Swan Coffee.

After years in the corporate world, I realized something was missing. The work didn’t fulfill me, so I left to start over and figure out what would. One of the happiest moments on that journey was becoming a home barista. I discovered that my favorite part wasn’t drinking the coffee, but making a great cup for someone else.

In 2022, that joy became Winter Swan, a mobile coffee cart serving the Rochester community at pop-ups and private events. Then came our little shop, and today we do both: a coffee shop to call home and a mobile cart that comes to you.

As a Vietnamese immigrant, the coffee culture of Vietnam and Southeast Asia is a big part of who I am. You’ll taste it in our menu, with its Asian-inspired flavors and drinks you won’t find just anywhere.

Whether you stop by the shop or book us for your event, we’re glad to share a cup with you.
