State Sen. Andy Berke, D-Chattanooga, will be hosting a “Coffee with Andy” at 8 a.m. Monday at Greyfriar’s Coffee and Tea, 406 Broad St.

Berke announced his candidacy for Chattanooga mayor last month. He’s holding the coffee to ask city residents their opinions on the most important issues facing Chattanooga, a news release states.

“As I have throughout my Senate career, I look forward to listening to Chattanoogans dedicated to the future of our city,” Berke said in the release.

He already has held one coffee event at a Starbucks in Hixson. The news release said he promises to conduct more over the coming months.
