Ford's Coffee shop, located at 14 Main Street, was started by Harold Heseltine and Leslie Ford Powers. It was originally a bakery and soda fountain and then became a luncheonette. Tom and Stella Koravos purchased the shop in 1954 and ran it as Ford's until 1994.
Ford's was Andover's political center. Locals met every day to discuss issues.
Tom Koravos passed away at Lawrence General Hospital on Friday March, 18, 2005. He was 85 years old.
Jay Leno, Robert Urich, Michael Chiklis, and John Kennedy Jr. frequented Ford's.
Starbuck's is in the space now (2013).
