Taste & See coffee truck, an REMC member-owned business, has become a familiar sight for locals. Often parked near Aldi on Dixie Drive, this small business serves up handcrafted drinks and genuine connection.

When the original business, The American Bean was put up for sale, sisters Megan Rich and Taylor Vestal were among its most loyal customers. They joked often about how much money they spent there, and how they might as well just buy it.

“We would laugh about it all the time,” Megan said. “But you don’t joke about a business opportunity when Taylor’s husband is around.”Before they knew it, the joke turned into a reality. The sisters became the owners of the truck, rebranding it as Taste & See Coffee and stepping into a journey neither fully expected.

What began as a small business has become a space where people feel seen and supported. And the community has noticed.

Megan credits consistency and connection as the foundation of their success.

“We focus on strong, consistent quality in what we serve, where we’re located and the relationships we build with our customers,” she said. “That’s what keeps people coming back.”

But for Megan and Taylor, Taste & See is about much more than coffee.

Faith plays a central role in both of their lives; They told us, “We knew when we bought the truck that our faith in Jesus Christ was going to be a big part of it.” Megan said they saw this as “a ministry opportunity.”

The business name itself reflects that calling. Taste & See comes from Psalm 34:8: “O taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man that trusteth in him.”

That verse has become more than a name; it’s a mission. Over time, the coffee truck has become a place of connection. Megan and Taylor say they see people on their best days and their hardest ones. Relationships have grown far beyond casual customer interactions.

“Some people have cried on our shoulders,” Megan shared. “I’ve come out of the truck to pray with people, to hug them; and I’ll absolutely stop the line for that opportunity.”

What began as a small business has become a space where people feel seen and supported. And the community has noticed.

“It’s really become a ministry,” Megan said. “People know that now.”

Looking ahead, the sisters hope to add a second truck later this year, but they’re taking things one step at a time and seeing where the Lord leads.

Wherever that path goes, one thing is certain: Taste & See has already made a lasting impact on Asheboro one cup, one conversation, and one prayer at a time.
