Serving Lucas, Ottawa, Sandusky and Wood Counties
Destination Toledo announced that Coffee Quest 419, the beloved coffee trail in the Toledo region, is returning from March 15 to June 15.
This year’s quest will feature 29 participating coffee shops, along with a new theme: “Sip, Savor, Send: A Greeting from Along Your Quest.”
With new prizes and a fresh take on adventure, coffee lovers will have the opportunity to explore local coffee spots, both familiar and new, while celebrating the vibrant culture and community of the Toledo region.
“We were amazed by the enthusiasm for Coffee Quest 419 last year,” said Caleigh Heuring, Director of Marketing & Communications at Destination Toledo. “We’re thrilled to bring it back this spring, welcoming even more shops to the experience. There’s no better way to embrace warmer weather than by exploring Toledo’s coffee scene and supporting local businesses.”
This year’s theme is inspired by vintage postcards and stamps, capturing the essence of exploration, nostalgia and connection. Local graphic designer Alyson Krajewski created the colorful and distinctive artwork.
As in previous years, participants who visit the majority of the coffee shops will earn a Coffee Quest 419 T-shirt, printed by sponsor Jupmode. Additionally, Destination Toledo has expanded prize opportunities, including a Coffee Quest 419 sticker, keychain, and a Grand Prize Drawing. “We’ve added a keychain this year, which fits perfectly with the vintage adventure theme,” Heuring said.
Those looking to take an eco-friendly approach to the quest can also purchase a reusable Coffee Quest 419 travel mug at select participating locations. This year’s mugs were printed locally by LightBeam Laser.
Participants can preregister for their digital passport at VisitToledo.org/CoffeeQuest419. The passport, powered by Bandwango, will go live on March 15 and will allow coffee lovers to check in via unique QR codes at each location.
