Some sad news:

We are suspending weekday cafe service for the time being as we think through our future with daytime programming. The realities of sustaining a second, materially different business out of Strange Delight were more difficult than we hoped, especially given a dip in traffic in an already very competitive environment.

The good news is we will still have a pastry program with all the cafe classics plus some new creations on the weekends, and we’re going to double down on our sweet program for brunch and dinner service. Plus, y’all know we love a daytime cafe pop-up every now and then so we’ll find some special ways to show up for you.

And last but not least, we’ll still be sending a selection of Amanda Perdomo items over to our friends Canyon Coffee on a recurring basis!

Thanks to everyone who showed up and supported over the last 9 months. The cafe may be gone on the weekdays for now, but we’ll never stop wishing you a good mornin’.

We installed a tv in the front room so that we can pay homage to godfather Chef Emeril J. Lagasse III while he, in return, keeps a watchful over us.

Secondary benefit is that we will be showing 🏀 🏀 tomorrow night (front room only); reservation gets you a seat for the night, po’boys, fries, a salad, and your first drink. Bar and kitchen will be open late for additional treats. Use the link in bio.
