By The Way Espresso

JEROME, IDAHO – Located on Highway 93 in southern Idaho, By the Way Espresso has been serving up drinks to people travelling on the highway for over 20 years. After starting off by buying roasted beans from a third party, this coffee stand now roasts its own beans to provide fresh coffee to all who travel along Highway 93.

“I was in the vending business for 15 years, the last 8 years in Yakima, Washington,” said Larry Collins, owner of By the Way Espresso. “I watched the espresso business from early in my vending days. I always thought I would like to have a drive-thru espresso business on the spot I am located at today. We started selling espresso drinks 22 years ago and started roasting our own coffee 19 years ago.”

When Larry first started the business, he used a third-party roaster to provide him with the beans needed to make his espresso drinks. When the vendor got too busy, Larry bought a small roaster that roasted just half a pound of beans at a time. After burning through two of these small roasters, Larry turned to Coffee Crafters and bought an Artisan XL coffee roaster to keep up with the demand for his products.

“I love roasting and turning people on to new coffee,” Larry said. “Many are just trying to learn about new coffee and I like telling them about the trip is makes from the farm to my roaster.”

Along with the drinks you can buy in the drive-thru, like the best selling Stocky White Double Shot Latte, customers can also purchase whole bean bags of Larry’s fresh roasted coffee. Larry said he made an Anniversary Blend for his 20-year anniversary and was only going to selling it for a few months, but it became so popular that he is still offering it today.
