We want to thank you for being a part of the community that has been built thus far. We look forward to serving up your favorite Rooted drinks throughout the rest of October and we can’t wait to see you from now until then.
Patrons both human and pup will miss the cafe. My colleague Buehler, for one, is devastated at the loss of a local gem. The loss in the community is sure to be palpable.
