Look for us! Row C - Table #20

Something to be thankful about this Thanksgiving? Well besides being able to spend some quality time with family and friends, right before the Thanksgiving holiday, we got the notice from the contractor stating we pass both the electrical and the plumbing permitting process for the city. The partial approval with a few minor adjustments to be finished but still approved.

It has taken us literally 14 months to get to this stage! I was almost in shock, it has been a nightmare with multiple times consuming setbacks. The contractor has to repeat himself to make sure I understood what he was saying. 🥴

What does that mean in regards to our opening date? It means that the second stage of renovations can now begin. The cleaning, painting and getting the floors done and applying for our retail license then hiring, training and stocking merchandise and soft opening could happen next month!

So thankful!

It's been a long tough battle to get this far, but we can see the end of the process. We know it's been a while since we posted any update on the status of the café and honestly we've been kind of hesitant to say anything. For some reason it seems whenever we did make an announcement with a perspective opening date, things would get in the way. We would jinx ourselves and some unexpected delay would occur. 😑

Soz we've been quiet as things have progressed. It took us eight long months just to get the permits to renovate, but now we are now in the renovation phase. The plumbing and electrical systems will be installed this week, hopefully. Then we have to paint and decorat the place. Hopefully all will be said and done for a soft opening this Fall. The party room, office, bathroom, and storage room walls have all been put up, and we wanted to show you what the space will look like.

Finally it is coming together.

If everything goes correctly, we should be open this coming Fall

This sounds terrifyingly fun.

Sorry guys, we know it's been a while since we posted anything. 😏 We been trying to keep our enthusiasm in check due to circumstances of what happened with our last location off Gaines St. But things are slow beginning to pick up pace at our at new site and hopefully soon we can begin renovations. Tentatively we are looking for a Fall opening. We will start posting updates for the as the renovations move forward. Here is our working slate. 🥰

After months of negotiating, the owner of our building decided they have separate plans for our site and will not allowing any leases beyond December 2022. Thus cancelling our possiblity to renovating and utilizing the space.

As as of January 7th our lease was terminated. So we and out agents are currently for. A suitable location with a minimum of 2 year lease terms.

We are also currently working to raise capital to better prepare for when a location is found we can begin as soon as possible.

Thank you everyone for supporting us. This is just a minor setback. We seen the desire for such a place here and will keep moving forward to being about.

"Dattebayo!"

Been so waiting for this one!
