🚧 Downtown Improvements Are Underway! 🚧

As our city continues working to beautify our downtown, we know the construction can make getting around a little more challenging. We want to encourage everyone to continue shopping local and supporting the small businesses that make our community special.

This is a two-part project. The first phase includes replacing the sidewalk along the side of our restaurant. Once that is completed, construction will move to the front of the restaurant, where the front sidewalk will be replaced. While there may be some temporary inconveniences, we will continue to do our best to remain accessible and welcome all of our customers throughout the project.

A special thank you to the City of Rensselaer and 181 Properties for all of the hard work, planning, and dedication going into this project. We can't wait to see the finished results and the positive impact it will have on our downtown for years to come.

Thank you to all of our amazing customers for sticking with us throughout the process. Please continue to come downtown, shop local, and support your favorite small businesses—we couldn't do it without you! ❤️
