Bob & Lou's Coffee

Bob & Lou’s is a mobile coffee shop created from a remodeled vintage 1960’s camper. Founded by Sarah Knabel, a local Dubuque woman who has always dreamed of her own coffee shop. The name Bob & Lou’s was created after her grandparents, Bob and Mary Lou Johanningmeier, who are avid coffee drinkers themselves! The mobile coffee camper will travel around Dubuque County and the Tri-State area to share our perfectly brewed cold and hot beverages. Our mission is to infuse Dubuque’s charm into every cup of coffee while growing a loyal Bob & Lou’s community who returns daily for the atmosphere, aroma, and unmatched customer service.

Bob & Lou’s will offer a uniquely curated menu including hot coffee, lattes, mochas, cold brew, hot chocolate, tea, and seasonally changing drinks curated by the team. Bob and Lou’s also plans to incorporate other products from local small businesses. We intend to mobilize our coffee camper throughout Dubuque County and the Tri-State area including, but not limited to the local farmer’s markets, weddings and business events, and other seasonal events. Bob & Lou’s will not only sell coffee, we will offer a menu and unique atmosphere that allows locals to connect with the community and create memorable experiences.
