Faces of Revo

December is one of our favorite times of the year at Revo. The cafes are buzzing with families and friends, festive Revo drinks and pastries are a-plenty, & the holiday vibes ring especially high.  The sentiment of sharing holiday cheer is resounding within the shops, and our gratitude for everything that exists here matches the radiance of the season.

We just gathered our very own Revo crew for our annual holiday party to celebrate the incredible team who work tirelessly to make the magic come alive each day - especially at this time of year. The early mornings, the big ideas, the long shifts, the not-always-glamorous work that makes our cafes go round.  

To show some love for our special crew, and to bring more light to those that serve you with a smile on the regular, we’re sharing a little about a select number of our people and what lights them up.  These are (a few of!) the faces that make it happen around here on the daily.
