The Ugly Mug Café and Emporium


1290 Kings Road

902-270-8459


Overview

The Ugly Mug was dreamt up when co-owners Tracey Black-Hanratty and Lori Latimer-Merlin were coaching basketball. With a little hard work, we went from running basketball drills to running the cafe floor when the idea became a reality in December 2012. We believe in offering fair trade, organic, quality coffee, and fresh-baked goodies which are produced every morning at 5 am (just ask Krista!). And to everyone’s surprise, located at the back of our cafe is a unique shopping experience, featuring products by local artisans and other funky, innovative items. Lori and Tracey hope the Ugly Mug can provide a space that is warm and welcoming to everyone. Whether your visit is for business, socializing with friends, or relaxing with a book, we predict your first mug is only the beginning.
Hope to see you soon!

Open Monday-Saturday: 7:30am-4:00pm
