Dear beloved community, it is with deep gratitude that we announce the closure of our dear cafe. After much consideration we made the difficult decision to close our doors. From the bottom of our hearts we want to thank each and everyone of you for your support and love over the years. While our physical doors may be closed, the memories we’ve built will remain forever in our hearts. Thank you for making our journey so special.
