Debby Rogers has always loved coffee. Her dream to open a drive-thru coffee shop came true when her and her husband Robert Guinn moved to Navarre in September 2011 and opened their first Deb’s Coffee drive thru in January 2012.
They wanted to specifically cater to people on the go, where you could feel welcomed with a smile, grab a great cup of coffee and be on your way without having to fight for parking or stand in line.
After being taught by an espresso expert, Debby and Robert practiced in their kitchen for 4 months. They blind tested coffee beans and found a roaster that personalized the Deb’s blend.\
Debby’s daughter Tiffany Guinn started working with her mom in the coffee business when she was 23 and headed to nursing school.
“Tiffany has given up her career in nursing to come be a part of this,” Debby said.
“I love it and I love working with my parents, family- owned and operated.” Tiffany said. “And hopefully one day I can pass it down to my daughter.”
In 2020, Deb’s Coffee Drive Thru opened a second location in Shalimar at 1255 North Eglin Parkway.
The original Navarre location of Deb’s Coffee was a 200-square-foot trailer located on the north side of U.S. Highway 98. In 2022, Deb’s Coffee recently expanded to a new 600-square-foot building, located at 1801 Navarre Sound Circle, to become a more permanent part of Navarre.
“We have a lot more space to accommodate our customers, more than enough storage and refrigeration, which allows us to add to our menu and offer more products than we did at our last location,” Debby said.
They’ve even expanded their menu to include croissants from a little French bakery that are available three times a week. Deb’s also serves muffins, brownie bites and oatmeal.
Debby says her favorite drink is the Fatty Natty, which is named after a previous employee named Natalie and similar to a breve coffee but served cold. It includes sugar, half and half and two hot shots.
Debby’s daughter Tiffany, who manages both the Navarre and Shalimar locations says her favorite drink changes.
“But right now, it’s the Waffle, which is maple, brown sugar, cinnamon and toasted marshmallow and two shots of espresso.”
When Deb’s Coffee first started in 2012, they just served basic coffee drinks.
“So, to get Navarre involved, we put up a sign that said ‘Make up a drink, we’ll put your name on it,’” Debby recalled. “That started bringing people in and personalized (our menu), made it more like their home because they were like part of our family.”
Even to this day, a lot of the drinks on the menu are named after their very first customers.
“I never wanted a sit-down. I always wanted to be the coffee- on-the-go, where you get treated really well, you’re part of a family,” Deb said. “Where you come through, they know your drink, they know who you are. So, we’ve built that over the years.”
