Wine, Beyoncé, embarrassing (in retrospect) moves, and good times were abounding at this year's Greggies as we partied at Brooklyn Winery in Williamsburg.
"But what are the Greggies?"
Greggies: noun
a Gregorys Coffee event thrown once a year to thank the awesome baristas who make the magic happen in every shop; the annual Gregorys Coffee dance-athon and award ceremony.
With the recent major expansion within the company, there have been a huge flow of incoming baristas whom the vets from other stores haven't been able to banter with, so the Greggies was a great opportunity to gather all of the stores and celebrate this awesome year.
We also got to celebrate some choice baristas during our usual Greggies Awards ceremony:
