I don’t quite know how to write everything I’m feeling right now. But here goes.

First and most, THANK YOU! Thank you for supporting us. Thank you for supporting community. Thank you for loving each other through some really tough times. Thank you for accepting us, in all our flaws and even our disagreements. Thank you for being here. YOU were the best part of our days for two years. All of that isn’t nothing. It is everything.

I don’t want relive the whole building debacle and why we had to move out. The new location just did NOT work out. I’m saddened and I’m sorry.

For now, we are just going to keep trying to be good and do good in everything we do. We hope that you’ll Pause and do the same.

This isn’t the end, it’s just a much longer Pause than we had hoped.

We may be transitioning into other ways to help our community on this page in the future.

We love you. We see you. We are you.



With much love & gratitude,
The Pause Crew

It’s a very sad day for us as we close out these memories in Ralston.

What is now an empty space held so much love and hope for so many marginalized community members. We were so honored to be a small part of a movement to & in Ralston.

Please continue to support local coffee shops like Coffee Alley-Callejon del Cafe and our friends Lemontreeneb right down the street. These small business need your love and support here, now more than ever.

Forever grateful,
Kelly, Mike, Matthew and the rest of the Pause crew

Many of you have already heard, and please know how much I struggle to actually type these words out….however, it is time for us to take our own PAUSE.

We are working on other plans for the future of our little dream for the first quarter of 2025, but this Saturday (Nov 23) will be our last day open in our current location in Ralston.

We have cherished every minute we have spent over the last two years getting to know and love this community more and more. We appreciate all the love and support for our mission of inclusion. It really does matter. And you being patrons of our little shop, you have proven that it matters to you as well.

We have spent many days working to end each day better than we found it and leave each human, knowing they always had a friend as they left our space.

Many challenges come along in our lives, some we can control while others we cannot. What we can all control is our ability to and for others. That will ALWAYS be our goal! We hope you’ll choose the same. ❤️

We also hope you’ll join us for one last in Ralston tomorrow or swing by for some football chat from our favorite
Bro-rista, Matthew on Saturday!

We’ll be sure to post updates here after we take some time to process and manage our next steps.

Forever grateful,
The Whole Crew at Pause 🫶🏽
