The Mermaid Café is more than a coffee shop — it’s a dream come true.

Founded by Leah Meyer and her family, we’re one of San Antonio’s first cafés built around hiring people with disabilities. From baristas to bakers, every team member brings heart, purpose, and joy to everything we serve.

We’re on a mission to prove that everyone belongs — and everyone contributes.
