Finding our grind
It all began — you guessed it — in a coffee shop.
For the first months of their relationship, The Grind Coffeehouse founders, Kirby Keomysay and Tyler Sutter, spent countless hours tucked away in local cafés — Tyler studying to become a Pediatric Physician Assistant while Kirby focused on growing kontempo., his Omaha-based salon. Between textbooks, laptops, and lattés, they discovered a shared love for coffee, creativity, and connection.
That passion eventually turned into a dream: to create a space that captured the best of those experiences — a coffeehouse built on quality, craftsmanship, and community.
When The Grind Coffeehouse opened in 2021, Kirby and Tyler set out to make something more than just another café. They designed a space where people could feel welcome, inspired, and connected — whether it’s over a morning latte, a study session, or a quiet moment to recharge.
Every detail, from the handcrafted drinks to the inviting design, was chosen with intention. The result is a space that’s become a true community hub — where baristas know your name, your order, and sometimes even your story.
As The Grind continues to grow, Kirby and Tyler remain dedicated to evolving with purpose. In 2025, The Grind proudly partnered with Messenger Coffee, a Kansas City roaster known for its craftsmanship, transparency, and ethical sourcing. This partnership marks the next step in delivering the highest-quality coffee while staying true to what matters most — the people and connections behind every cup.
Conveniently connected to ko & co. Studios, The Grind also serves as a natural meeting spot — whether you’re stopping by after an appointment or catching up with friends. Every corner of the shop was designed to feel warm, modern, and intentional — the kind of place that feels like home from your first visit.
Today, The Grind stands as more than a coffee shop. It’s a reflection of its community — a place built by locals, for locals, where every sip and every conversation matters.
Because at The Grind, coffee is more than what’s in your cup — it’s the connection that happens around it.
