Java Joy serves coffee, empowers adults at Mercedes-Benz Stadium

Java Joyristas bring a smile to the Mercedes-Benz Stadium with new concession cart for fans

Java Joy provides meaningful employment to adults with disabilities in the Atlanta area. Now they are serving up smiles at Mercedes-Benz Stadium starting this weekend.

ATLANTA - Caffene isn't the only thing spreading joy at this new kiosk for specialty coffee in Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Java Joy next to Section 116 will serve coffee while employing and empowering adults with all abilities.

The Georgia-based non-profit, Extra Special People is behind the coffee shop.

FOX 5 Atlanta previously featured ESP's mobile coffee cart that does neighborhood pop-ups each week.

"They’re used to getting out, so being able to help them get back on a schedule and being able to see them besides via a screen is just super nice," said Erica Andrews, Java Joy’s Athens city manager and national coordinator.
