Ash Hollow Coffee Co

Ash Hollow Coffee Co. is a small-batch, artisan coffee roastery and café located at 246 S. 10th Street in Loup City, Nebraska, founded in March 2023 by Jacie Bandur, who turned a coffee-roasting hobby she picked up in 2020 into a thriving local business. The shop offers specialty espresso drinks, seasonal menu items, tea, breakfast fare, barrel-aged coffee beans, and plant-based energy drinks — including a signature Polish Macchiato, a nod to Loup City’s heritage as the Polish capital of Nebraska. Bandur’s decision to return to her hometown has been celebrated by local economic development leaders as a model of small-town entrepreneurship.
