Admin’s Note

The recent news of the café closing has made me reflect on the impact that rising prices have on local culture and community. In particular, the closure of a beloved café that has been a part of the community for many years is a significant loss for the locals. Understanding that the harsh economic conditions are directly affecting the food and beverage industry highlights the need for us, as consumers, to become more aware. I believe it’s important to think about ways to support local cafés in the future.
