When Kenneth Schweighofer opened Congregation Coffee in Germantown in late December 2023, he wanted to create a space where people could gather and talk as they enjoyed a cup of coffee. More than two years later Schweighofer — who owns the Congregation retail center on Forest Hill Irene Road, which Congregation Coffee anchors — believes he has accomplished that.
