After a great deal of consideration, we have come to the decision that we will not be re opening Little Brother for the foreseeable future. Although our landlords have been exceptionally generous and flexible with us on making it work in the current space, at the end of the day, we’ve decided it’s best to take this opportunity to focus our energies on our other two restaurants and and to seek some level of work life balance for our family with scaling back for now. Little Brother was opened with a primary goal of being family focused, with our children’s photos on the front entry, their books on the shelves and artwork on the walls, so it is bitter sweet to say that we are ultimately making this choice for their best interests.

We have been beyond overwhelmed by the love and support for what we’ve created here and are heartbroken to disappoint anyone with our decision. We are so grateful for the support, patronization and memories over the years, and although we won’t be here physically slinging brunch like we used to, you WILL be seeing our Cinnamon Rolls, breads and pancake mixes for the holiday season via and can order upon request for all of the above along with donut pie and babka through

We will be forever grateful for the community created within these walls and will always treasure the memories made here. Thank you for the love and support,

Alex & Joe Tripp

It is with a heavy heart that as a family, we have made the difficult decision to put a temporary pause on Little Brother effective at the end of service today 08/25, and will be closing the doors at 1pm.

With the departure of a key staff member at Harbinger, our priorities must be focused there right now, and as we are also nearing the end of our lease here, we are taking this time to weigh negotiations with our landlords while we further evaluate if continuing with Little Brother is what’s best for us, and what that may look like.

While we are sad to have to suddenly halt operations despite the dining room remaining bustling, and even sadder to let anyone in our community down, we are looking forward to focusing our energy and passion on Harbinger and Basic Bird for now.

In the case that we continue operations, we will be looking to make a fresh start with a new management team and new front of house staff, and encourage those interested in reaching out in the meantime.

Thank you for joining us along this ride so far, and hope you continue to share delicious memories with us as we decide Little Brother’s future, and as we continue our commitment to serving the community through our brand as a whole.

Our Brioche French Toast is a something that really sets us apart.
