Located in downtown Mooresville, NC, Welcome Vets Museum at Richard's Coffee Shop serves as both a place of respectful respite for veterans and their families to gather as well as a historical museum lovingly crafted to provide tribute to veterans of all conflicts and all branches of the military.
We are open to all who want to join us from 8AM - 1PM, Monday through Saturday. We serve breakfast and lunch, and of course, plenty of coffee; kitchen closes at 12:30PM. The museum is free to visit; we do have a gift shop if you are searching for military merchandise. Don't forget to head over on Thursdays for free coffee and Saturday mornings for music jams!

Help us keep it all going and growing! Many one-of-a-kind artifacts, mementos and souvenirs are exhibited in our museum. So many of our regular visiting veterans have helped find, procure, and institute the memorabilia on display. We are also a LIVING museum so we value relics, memories, stories, old-timers, newcomers, and pieces from all conflicts and all vets alike. If you have any memorabilia you would like to contribute or would like to just support our efforts in continuing the legacy of our national heroes, please let us know. Fill out the form below or get in touch with us to make a monetary tax-deductible contribution. Or just come and share your experiences. We truly appreciate all support!
