Two new businesses have opened their doors in Roy: Vintage Grind Coffeehouse at 5605 S. 1900 W. in the Roy City Centre, and Family Outlet at 5392 S. 1900 W. in the Harmon’s Marketplace.

Vintage Grind specializes in a variety of drinks: coffee, espresso, latte, tea, and “not coffee” such as Italian soda, smoothies, and Mayan or Mexican hot chocolate. Along with the drinks, you’ll find pastries, breakfast sandwiches, egg muffin cups, a variety of topped toast, and salads. Owned by a local Roy family, VG offers a warm, cozy environment for those looking for a specialty drink and a pastry, or a drive-through on the way to work or home. Every third Thursday morning for the next few months, you can come inside and have “Coffee with a Cop”; ask questions, voice concerns, and get to know the officers in your neighborhood. Vintage Grind is open 6 a.m. -6 p.m. Monday – Friday, 7 p.m. – 5 p.m. Saturday, closed Sunday.

Family Outlet offers new, brand-name clothing for men, women, and children and a variety of discounted merchandise for as low as $3.50. Family Outlet is an expansion of the popular, locally-owned Family Outlet in Layton. In addition to the apparel that changes week to week, Family Outlet’s shelves offer new merchandise such as baby gates or strollers, curtains, children’s toys, and family games. One day you might find brand-new dining room chairs; another day you might find slipcovers for the family sofa or a charcoal grill – all at deep discounts. Family Outlet is open 9:15 a.m.- 7 p.m. Monday – Friday, closes at 6 p.m. Saturday, closed Sunday.

These two new businesses are welcome additions to the renewed commerce landscape taking shape in Roy! The city is excited to have both businesses call Roy home, and is eager for their involvement in the community. Vintage Grind, for example, recently took part in the Roy City Halloween Trunk-or-Treat, handing out discount coupons to their business. Shop Roy and support small businesses!
