Student Run Businesses

Rice Coffeehouse is one of three student run businesses at Rice University. The other businesses are Willy’s Pub and the Hoot. Student Run Businesses are educational opportunities that benefit all members of the Rice community (A great article about Student Run Business). We are entirely managed and staffed by students, with guidance from our two wonderful advisors Erin and Keirm. As a Student Run Business, Coffeehouse Managers work together to make sure that the rent is paid, the products are served, the catering orders are filled, health code is followed, and a good time is had by all that come to Coffeehouse.

All of the Student Run Businesses strive to provide quality products for a good cost to Rice. Starting in 2010, the Student Run Businesses have begun working together to promote Student Run Businesses around the Rice campus. As part of this effort, we have begun a yearly Student Run Business Week, which includes celebrations and discounts at all of the business. Stay tuned for more information about Student Run Business Week next year!
