Today was Meg’s last day at the cafe! 😭 I know I’ll still be seeing her (she is my niece after all) but we’re going to miss all the joy she brought to our crew, and I know our customers are going to miss her as well! Thank you Meg for being such a wonderful part of our 212 family and for always stepping up wherever and whenever we needed you to. All the love and best wishes at your new job!! ❤️❤️❤️

Looking to hire some extra help at the cafe 20-ish hours a week -MUST be available Monday through Friday 10-2:30 - sorry, but teenagers and those with school schedules just don’t make sense for our hours and what we do. Need to be able to hustle 💪 restaurant experience is great, but not necessary. 😊

Like and share this post and we’ll put your name in a drawing, and announce the winners each Friday on Instagram and Facebook. Easy peasy- the only hard decision is who to pick as your lunch date! 😆 Happy 212 Birthday Month! 🥳🥳🥳
