OUR STORY
“OSO” is the spanish word for “bear”, or in our case “mama bear”. As a young pre-teen my mother was left to take care of her younger sisters and brothers after their mother left them with an aunt, and as a result she was given the nickname Oso. This nickname has stuck her entire life and as a young kid I remember hearing her sisters refer to her as Oso.
This coffee shop is dedicated to my mom and the pillar that she’s been to the family. To this day she is revered as the “mama bear” and we will do the best that we can to honor her through everything we do through this shop. To Maria Yolanda Garcia, thank you for being the best mom, sister, aunt, grandmother, and friend in the whole world. – Hector Garcia / OSO founder & son.
