Dunn Bros. Coffee has closed in the L&C Tower after a roughly 11-year run due to the COVID-19 pandemic causing revenue losses.
Owned by locally based husband and wife team Fawn Ker and Kevan Ker, the downtown Dunn Bros. opened in April 2009. The Kers were the first to offer in Tennessee a shop from the Saint Paul, Minnesota-based franchise chain. The address was 401 Church St.
The Kers posted the following on their Facebook page:
“We not only thank you for your business but also for all the friendly faces, the laughs we shared with so many of you, and your loyalty. We took pride in knowing many of your names and being the place for you to gather for your lunch meeting or the place to grab your cup of coffee and breakfast sandwich before heading to the big game on the weekend. We also would like to thank all the local businesses and community organizations who generously partnered with us over the years, trusting us with catering your meetings and other events.”Nashville Business Journal
first reported the Dunn Bros. closing.
