Pittador Brews in the News: From Local Roots to the Waterfront
Every cup at Pittador Brews has a story behind it. In 2025, local reporters followed an important chapter in ours: the journey from pop-up service to a permanent home in Old Sacramento. This collection looks back at that coverage and celebrates the people who helped us get here.
From pop-ups to a permanent home
For five years, Liliette and Stephen Freeman brought their specialty teas and coffees to festivals and farmers’ markets. What Now Sacramento’s March 14, 2025 feature captured the next step: plans for a café where guests could settle in with a drink and bring their dogs along. The story reflects the ambition behind the move—a welcoming home for the flavors and connections first shared at local events.
Rio Linda roots, Sacramento momentum
Rio Linda Online’s March 6, 2025 story recognized the community roots behind that next chapter. It highlighted the Freemans’ local event presence and Pittador Brews’ Calling All Dreamers victory, including the $20,000 prize. Its coverage also described the mentorship and support behind the business incubator program. For us, that recognition belongs alongside every conversation, recommendation, and return visit that helped the business grow.
