Etcetera Coffeehouse

Etcetera Coffeehouse is a beloved independent coffee shop located at 320 North 6th Street in Paducah, Kentucky’s Lower Town Arts District, founded in 2006 by former teachers Johanna and Allan Rhodes as a community gathering place rooted in the neighborhood’s growing art scene. In 2017, ownership was transferred to six long-time core employees, continuing its tradition as a community-centered, democratically run business. The shop specializes in organic, fair-trade coffees, espresso drinks, teas, bubble tea, and homemade snacks, and serves as a cultural hub offering local art, live music, and poetry events.
