Bella
Barista and Social Media
Bella has been a barista for over 4 years, starting at a small coffeeshop at UW-Madison while she was earning a degree in creative writing. Not only does she serve a creative spin on coffee drinks and flavors, but her imaginative talent can also be found on the cafe’s social media pages through pictures and captions. Bella is our morning opener, so you can catch this early bird brewing up “owl” your caffeinated needs before the sun is even up!
Amanda
Bartender
Amanda is your guide to all the delights the Golden Owl has to
offer! With over a decade in the industry, you can find her
pouring up a house bloody, chatting with tables in the dining
area, or ensuring perfection is delivered to your table. She may
even be found laughing at her own bad jokes and spreading
ounces of fun. She has a passion for service while staying true
to herself. A real hoot on the team and a welcoming personality
to start your day on the right foot.
