about
Flynns Table will one day transcend into a dream-like community co-working space where goats roam free and we serve amazing coffee by day and wine by night. Until we get there, we entertain you with our Flynns Blog. Here our vision is about community, doing the right thing, and connecting people.
We hope you like it here and look forward to getting to know you.

Stuff we think about
On the blog we will focus on the little things that bring a smile, make joy, create laughter, and are just plain helpful. We've found that that little things are really big things in this chaotic world. Please stop by when you can and hopefully you'll find a smile, a bit of joy, or maybe a chuckle or two. We hope you do.
Our name
There’s a bit of a long story behind our Flynns Table name. If you ask, I’ll tell you one day. But I’ve written about this place in my journals since 1996, the year my daughter, Emily, was born. Yet, I never really had a name for this place. My vision was for an establishment that connected people in a more communal way where we served coffee and inspired good conversation—-but again, it never had a name. I’d scribbled down names here and there —most involved the word “house.” Then one night, I woke out of a sound sleep and the name Flynns Table was born. I prayed that the domain was available. How do I buy a domain? That was over10 years ago when I purchased the Flynns domain. Flynn is a family name (with a bigger story behind it) and Table just fits effortlessly. Everything happens at a table. Family meals, business meetings, poker nights, game nights, study groups, book clubs, coffee chit-chats, college planning, committee meetings, board meetings, afternoon tea, support groups, and so much more. I see many wonderful things happening at our tables at Flynns. One day we’ll get there…stay tuned.
