The shop arrives 14 years after sisters Gina Sanders, Tricia Cleland, Julie Geffre and Lisa Lees launched their cafe.
“This coffee shop will be an extension of everything we’ve built over the years-great food and coffee, familiar faces and friendly service in a space that feels like home,” the sisters wrote online.
The coffee house will be in the same shopping center as the cafe on 9050 Fairway Drive, according to the restaurant’s social media.
The sisters first entered the restaurant industry as teenagers. All four worked as waitresses, and became a “package deal everywhere (they) worked,” according to their online message.
The sisters went their separate ways once they went to college, but all four eventually returned to working together.
Inspired to start their own business, the four created a restaurant concept, wrote a business plan and began exploring locations, investors and leases, according to their website.

The journey wasn’t easy. For eight years almost every bank denied them a business loan. Landlords and investors told them their business was “too risky,” they said.
In 2012, after their father died of terminal brain cancer, the sisters temporarily suspended their ambitions to open their own restaurant.
Three months later, a broker reached out, saying he had the “perfect location” for their proposed cafe. They signed a lease and Four Sisters Cafe was born.
“Our restaurant means everything to us,” they wrote. “We think it’s safe to say our dad is beaming with pride from heaven.”
The quartet is hiring for the new location, looking for what they describe are “friendly, outgoing, hardworking baristas who love connecting with people and making great coffee.”
“If this is you, we would LOVE to meet you!” the sisters wrote online. “Please bring your resume, bubbly personality and love for coffee!”
