Located in Saratoga Springs, New York, Caffè Lena is the oldest continually running coffee house in the United States.[1] Founded in 1960 by Bill and Lena Spencer, it claims to be the oldest folk-oriented Coffee House, in the U.S., featuring acoustic concerts and cultural events showcasing folk music, traditional music, and singer-songwriters of a wide range. Since Lena Spencer's death on October 23, 1989 (she was born on January 4, 1923),[2] Caffè Lena has been a not-for-profit organization.
