New Winans location in Springfield to open late September

The second Winans Chocolates & Coffees in Springfield is expected to open in late September and will feature a drive-thru window, patio and wine.

“We are just dependent on so many moving parts right now and with COVID-19 it’s slowing everything down,” Owner Chandi Shah said.

The coffee shop will be located at 1406 N. Limestone St. in the NCF Savings Bank retail space.

The bank, which opened in July, and the coffee shop were originally slated to open in late 2019.

Shah previously told the News-Sun that she was approached by NCF Savings Bank about the opportunity to move into their new retail space.

“When we were approached by NCF Savings Bank we were absolutely ecstatic,” Shah said.

She explained that she is pushing to get the coffee shop open, but there has been a delay on getting constructing materials, permits and a liquor license.

This will be the third Winans location owned by Chandi Shah, who has another location in downtown Springfield and one in Dayton.
