OUR STORY
The story of Morning Brew, or at least its conception, started back in 1991 in Manhattan Beach, California. While Debbie was working her way through an interior design program at UCLA she had picked up a part-time job at a popular café in Manhattan Beach called “Tout- Suite.” While working there she got her first taste of the “café lifestyle” and soon became enamored. Peter would come in for breakfast on his days off and would end up hanging out to help Debbie clean up at the end of her shift. It wasn’t long before the two were discussing the possibilities of opening their own café, back home in Honolulu, Hawaii, where both of them grew up. Debbie and Peter were high school sweethearts at Punahou School, where they both graduated in 1983.Nearly two years later, once Debbie had completed her design program, the two returned to Hawaii to pursue their dream of opening their own café.
