About vault

Where History Meets Community.

Since 2014, Vault Coffee has been more than a place to grab a drink — it’s a cornerstone of downtown Coeur d’Alene, built on history, connection, and care.

The Building That Started It All

1904 — The Beginning of the Vault Story

Our story begins inside the historic Exchange Bank building, established in 1904 — a space where money once changed hands, and stories began. When we opened Vault Coffee in 2014, we knew this place carried more than bricks and mortar. It carried legacy.

Today, the vault door still stands as a symbol of what we value most — the people who walk through it.

The Meaning Behind the Name

More Than a Coffee Shop Name

“Vault” honors the spirit of this building’s past, but it also represents something bigger — a safe place for everyone. Whether you’re a local, a traveler, a student, or a family, Vault is where you’re always welcome.

To us, the greatest assets aren’t kept behind a door — they’re the people who gather here every day.

A Place for Everyone

A Table for
Every Story

Over the years, we’ve seen first dates turn into anniversaries, college students become regulars, and families stop in before heading to the park. The heart of Vault is found in those moments — in the laughter, the connection, and the conversations that make this city what it is.

We don’t just serve coffee. We serve community.

Our City, Our Home

Proudly Rooted in Downtown Coeur d’Alene

Vault Coffee is part of the rhythm of Coeur d’Alene — the downtown hum, the lake breeze, the familiar faces, the visitors discovering something new. We take pride in representing our city, its charm, and its people in every cup we serve.
