Vicki Harry is a high-energy extrovert who loves interacting with people. Over the years she has spent time as a coach, a teacher, a Pampered Chef consultant, and a school fundraiser director. When her kids went off to college, Vicki decided she wanted to have a business of her own and an idea began brewing in her mind. Her vision was to create a coffee house and gift boutique where she could connect with people while they shopped and enjoyed premium drinks. She immediately put her plan into action and within four months she had signed a contract, started construction, and begun extensive coffee training. Vicki’s enthusiasm and go-getter attitude paid off a mere seven months later when she opened Thanks A Latte on January 5, 2013.

Located in charming Main Street Square, Thanks A Latte is a bright, trendy, and uplifting space to gather with friends over a hot coffee, hunker down at a table to work while sipping a chai latte, or browse the curated boutique for unique gifts. Thanks A Latte offers drip coffee, organic tea, cold brew, traditional espresso drinks, and smoothies as well as boasting a list of specially crafted drinks with alluring names and even better flavors like Sunrise, Sunday Brunch, French Toast, and Honey Bee (Vicki’s personal favorite). The coffee shop sources all of their coffee beans, including their very own custom Thanks A Latte Blend, through Holly Springs’ Five Star Coffee Roasters. Compliment your drink with a macaron or one of the delicious pastries daily delivered from local bakery Bestow Baked Goods. And no matter what occasion you are celebrating, the shop’s broad selection of thoughtfully chosen gifts has you covered with items like gourmet snacks, books, candles, jewelry, handbags, baby items, home accessories and much more.

From the moment they opened, Thanks A Latte has supported our community not only by showcasing products from nearby small businesses, but also by opening their doors to host local artists, events, and classes. Thanks A Latte has donated to regional school fundraisers, organizations that support adoption and fight human trafficking, Meg’s Smile Foundation, and Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
