Tonight we hosted our first ever PCOS support group and it was such a lovely night ❤️ the group however had met once before at a different venue

8 of us got together and it was so nice to share our stories and be able to talk in a safe space 🥰

It was great to be able to use our space for such an amazing thing that’s so close to my heart given the fact I was diagnosed over 10 years ago myself

Please read 🙏🙏

This week we have such a busy week but its already shaping up to be a disappointing one 😢

Pcos support group we have 4 people booked in…..

Romantasy book club we have 7 people booked in…..

Father’s Day steak night we have 7 people booked in…..

Roo’s kitchen can seat almost 50 people so to have such low numbers especially for the Father’s Day steak night is honestly heartbreaking. Steak night/our Father’s Day events are usually fully booked shortly after publishing the menu and advertising the event and yet this year is just not the case 💔

The PCOS support group I can understand the low numbers because this is the first meet up but was hoping for more

The Romantasy book club is our 3rd meet up so was definitely hoping for more people this time especially since our regular book club is so popular

There is no cost to attend our support groups or book clubs other than we ask that you buy coffee & cake so we can justify opening for the evening and pay staff wages

All our events are advertised in the shop, on the events tab on facebook, I constantly post about them on Facebook & instagram

But I just don’t know what to do anymore..

So much time and effort goes into all our events and bistro nights

What’s putting you off from booking?

Coffee shop & Bistro. Sit in afternoon teas. Exclusive use hire. Gift vouchers available in the shop

Available Tuesday-Sunday 9am-2.30pm

‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

To the person who has dumped all these glass bottles and cups into our black bin that was emptied this morning.. come get your junk!!

This is absolutely ridiculous! I pay to get these bins emptied each week and it ain’t cheap!

The fact you have dumped these in a general waste bin that isn’t even yours is absolutely ridiculous!

Some of the neighbours have cameras so I’ll be getting the footage if you don’t come get them!

😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

Tonight’s loaded dogz n sides night!

It was a great in regards to being able to do fun dishes like this!

However I definitely left tonight feeling deflated 😞 it wasn’t a busy night at all.. we had some tables not show up and in the end only done 10 people and doing that is just not feasible for a small business

I sat down tonight and worked out costs.. between the money we spent on all the food, electricity used for opening the place and the equipment used to cook the food, mine and Amy’s “minimum wage” although we don’t take one, the effort and time I spend coming up with the menu, the lists and the actual prep of the food I’m sad to say that tonight we ran at a massive loss 😢

This is also not the first time this has happened with bistro nights lately 💔

Going forward I will be making some hard decisions wether or not to continue with all these different nights. I pour my heart and soul into them all to bring something special to the local area but unfortunately if we can’t get the bookings then there is no point in it

I would love to be able to open every Friday and Saturday night serving great food but at the moment that’s a long way off despite offering these special nights for more than 3 years!

Although this post is a negative one I’m really happy with the food that I put out tonight and a massive thanks to everyone who came along and supported our dream ❤️
