Well everyone, it is with tears in my eyes I make this announcement..... The Broken Grounds Cafe will be closing it's doors this Sunday July 30th. I want to thank you all from the very bottom of my heart for an amazing two years. It's been a joy getting to know each of you and your families.
Thank you so much for supporting a young woman and her dream. Despite us being a successful little six seat shop, employing many talented young adults in the community, and always paying our rent on time, the landlord has decided to terminate our lease to put in his own coffee shop due to an argument with a silent co-owner (and promptly informed me a buyout would be useless as a woman I should be focusing on finding a nice man and having a family-lucky me).
I want to thank you all so much. It's amazing we went from it just being me behind the counter eighty-four hours a week with one high school helper working eight hours on the weekends for the first five months we were at 1182 Walnut St to employing seven extremely talented and dedicated young women who leave me impressed every single day.
Please make sure to stop in this week for all your favorite Acai Bowls, smoothies, wraps, lattes, and more while you still can!!
