Our Story

MEET CRYSTAL
Founder/Co-owner of Coffee Camper Co. 

Crystal Padilla is the heart and soul behind Coffee Camper Co. — a specialty coffee shop built on family roots, creativity, and a whole lot of love.

A former touring musician turned community builder, Crystal dreamed of creating an inclusive space where people could slow down, feel at home, and share meaningful moments over a great cup of coffee. That dream took shape in the form in the brick and mortar in Monroe, Ga later duplicated into mobile coffee services our of a 1970’s vintage camper — transformed by hand into a mobile coffee bar that now brings caffeine, connection, and character to the streets. .

The name Coffee Camper speaks to Crystal’s love of travel and the many inspiring coffee cultures she encountered while on the road. But her story runs even deeper. Coffee is in her blood — quite literally. Her family are coffee farmers in the lush mountains of La Iguala, Honduras, where she’s spent time walking the land, learning the craft, and honoring the generations of hard work that came before her.

At Coffee Camper Co., Crystal blends that legacy with her own modern vision: to serve thoughtfully sourced drinks, create unforgettable experiences, and build a business that reflects the same humility and hospitality her family showed her.

Whether it’s a neighborhood pop-up, a wedding, or your morning ritual, Coffee Camper Co. is more than coffee — it’s culture, community, and the spirit of home, wherever you are.
