The Cracked Pot Coffee & Crepes

Our Story

The Teetzen family moved from Lebanon to Middletown to open their dream business—a coffee and crepe shop inspired by a café they fell in love with during a trip to Germany. They converted a former Realtor office into this cozy, charming space where the family lives upstairs and Cassidy runs an art studio in the basement. The name comes from an old fable about a cracked pot that, despite its flaw, brings life to the path by watering plants as it leaks—a celebration of the idea that our imperfections make us unique and beautiful. Everything is made-to-order from family-tested recipes: sweet crepes like Strawberry Fields and Cinnamon Roll, savory options like Farm Boy and The Philly, plus a full coffee menu. The shop also features handcrafted arts and ceramics from local artists. Front porch seating in warmer months.
