The Cafe is moving along nicely....It is still a 'work in progress' and keeps evolving as we get to know our customers and our local business neighbors....The menu seems to now be tweaked and the results are very favorable....I still have a ways to go with my not trying to micro manage every move that my able staff makes....It is hard because I am attempting to get a flow going but what ends up happening is that I frustrate and confuse them....My apologies to them and my promise to do better.....We are now giving a $1. off coupon for any purchase, when we get your email address and permission to send you our daily specials...Most folks will find this very helpful and an easy way to plan their food choices for the day.....

Some times these factors are self inflicted but really most are just events that life can bring to any one of us. So the Cafe will be closed from Monday March 11 & reopen on Monday March 18.
