about the owners
jenna and michelle
Jenna and Michelle, the founders of Bliss Caffeine Bar, have a passion for food and hospitality that runs deep. Jenna grew up in Collingwood, Ontario, and has been working in restaurants since she was just twelve years old, starting at Dairy Queen making blizzards. She worked her way up from hostess to server, then to cocktail server, and eventually to a management position in downtown Halifax.
After gaining valuable experience, Jenna decided it was time to venture out on her own. She opened The Ville Caffeine Bar in downtown Halifax, a small coffee shop where she could experiment with her love of coffee and pastries. It was through that business that she met Michelle, a talented pastry chef who had a reputation for making kick-ass pastries. Jenna was blown away by Michelle’s skills, and reached out to see if she would be interested in supplying pastries for The Ville.
Michelle was interested, and the two began a professional relationship that would eventually turn into a deep friendship. However, they each had bigger dreams in mind. Jenna wanted to open a brunch restaurant that would be the talk of the town, and michelle wanted to open a high quality restaurant.
After working together for some time, Jenna knew that Michelle was the perfect partner for her in their next venture. she began planting the seeds for a brunch restaurant that had incredible food and amazing coffee, that they could open together. Michelle was initially resistant, but Jenna persisted, and eventually, they decided to team up and take the leap.
Bliss Caffeine Bar was born out of their shared love for food and hospitality, and it shows in every aspect of the restaurant. From the warm and inviting decor to the delicious food and coffee, Bliss is a testament to their dedication and hard work, building a successful business that is a result of their passion and commitment to each other and their craft.
