To our valued friends and guests,
We opened Shires’ Coffee and Cocktails in April 2022 to promote awareness of our sister business, Shires’ Rooftop, in a street-level location, and complement the amenities at City Club. After two years at the cafe, and navigating the endless construction on Vine, the delayed openings for the other businesses slated for the area, the never-ending battle of the high cost of goods while trying to provide competitive wages for our employees, and managing the issue of a consistent downtown workforce, it did not make sense for us to continue operating two cafe/coffee shop locations within 150 yards of each other, with the issues we’ve experienced over the years.
With the closure of Shires’ Cafe, we are consolidating operations to Lola’s, our flagship coffee shop, at 24 W 3rd Street, where our cafe staff has been able to be retained.
We look forward to continue providing the area with our fantastic coffee, cocktails, breakfast sandwiches, and more, and hope our friends from the cafe will visit us around the corner!
