The menu also features a robust selection of caffeine-free options like real fruit smoothies, Campfire Cocoa, Italian sodas and more.
Maybe most unique to Ziggi’s is its signature kidZone menu – fun, caffeine-free drinks that are the perfect size (and price) for young kids – making Ziggi’s a family favorite.
Ziggi’s menu is rounded out with an impressive selection of high-quality food items. Delicious breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, artisan bread slices, cookies, and more are served on-the-go at all café and drive-thru locations.
All the alternatives – something for everyone
Ziggi’s has seen an increase in demand for various alternatives from health-conscious consumers and customers with various food allergies. The brand has been a leader in this category offering dairy-free alternatives like almond, coconut, soy, and oat milk for most of its signature offerings as well as many sugar-free flavor options so everyone can enjoy the “the best part of their day”.

Ziggi’s also offers a robust selection of gluten-free options, unique to the industry, including a gluten-free breakfast sandwich, bread slices, and more. With a focus on sustainability, Ziggi’s adopted sip-through lids for its cold beverages and offers agave-made straws, a 100 per cent biodegradable, eco-friendly option.
A community focus
Focusing on exceptional service and being a pillar in the community is at the core of who Ziggi’s Coffee is and has been since the brand’s inception in 2004. Working shifts behind the counter, founders Brandon and Camrin Knudsen quickly built relationships with each customer that eventually established their initial café location as a community hub and gathering space.
As the business has expanded to multiple locations with a strong focus on drive-thrus, the core of Ziggi’s corporate training is still rooted in the importance of building authentic relationships by encouraging staff to learn and greet regulars by name, giving each shop a more personal, small-town feel and making it a favorite for locals.

Ziggi’s has also supported many vendors throughout the recent pandemic by relying on them to continue supplying products at all Ziggi’s Coffee locations providing an avenue for business to thrive during a time where many were not operating. Their stories are powerful, and the roots run deep, grounding the Ziggi’s concept in making the world a better place.
