REDMOND, Wash. - Your next cup of coffee is going to cost you."We’re not making any money on the drip coffees anymore because the cost of coffee has gone up so much," said Victor’s Celtic Café owner Andrea Parrish.
Roasted coffee prices haven't spiked this much since 2012. Parrish is already trying to manage those increasing costs. "We’ve increased prices 6% over the last two weeks," Parrish said. "Everybody’s basically taking a hit."Frank Curtiss and his wife come to Victor’s once a week.
They’ve noticed their coffee is more expensive. "If it keeps going at some kind of rate like this, eventually it would have to factor in for us," Curtiss said.
With costs going up, more people are making their own coffee to save money. "They’re buying a really nice machine and buying a really good roasted coffee and brewing at home," said Caffé Lusso Owner Philip Meech.
