Rockn' Joe History
 Rockn'
Joe Coffeehouse and Bistro was founded by Kevin Brennan, a businessman
and visionary entrepreneur who capitalized on his love for rock music
to create the most popular place in Cranford, N.J. Rockn' Joe had its
beginnings in 1993, when Kevin saw how premiums coffees and sandwich
trends were gaining steam across the United States. What he created was
a unique café style coffeehouse with a cozy private lounge feel,
decorated with rock memorabilia that offered the highest standards in
bean selection and roasting techniques that set him ahead of the
competition.
Unlike stale theme restaurants, where the experience runs its course
after just one visit, Rockn' Joe is the place you want to come back to.
It is your local place to listen to fun, upbeat rock music, from an
eclectic collection of music over the past 40 years.
Your Rockn' Joe
Just like America's pioneering rock musicians, Rockn' Joe is not
content with the status quo. The store offers specialty sandwiches, a
delicious alternative to the boring, over-done fare of the chain
restaurants. Our specialty brews offers everything from a steaming cup
of Caramel XTC Latte to Café Mocha to daily specials concocted at a
moment's notice. Our dessert menu is equally amazing, the freshest cake
and pastry selection, the ideal compliment for our signature dishes and
coffees.
Besides being a popular hangout, Rockn' Joe is also an outstanding
business system that is franchising in New Jersey, New York and
Pennsylvania. The company is actively looking for potential franchisees
who are hard workers, love rock music, food and people and want to own
the coolest business in town.
Training and Support
Before expanding, Kevin wanted to ensure he had the business to the
point where everything was perfect: the best foods and drink, a
well-designed floor plan, and a streamlined and simple business system
that franchisees can easily follow. Now is your turn to enjoy the fun
and excitement of running the coolest business in town. As a member of
the Rockn' Joe team, your success is our success. To that end, we offer
you one of the finest support networks in the franchise industry.
