Description

Nestled in the heart of the Village, this iconic café has served as a cherished gathering spot for locals and visitors alike for decades. Positioned in a premier downtown location, the property enjoys exceptional street visibility and a steady stream of foot traffic.

Currently configured with a well-equipped commercial kitchen, two public restrooms, and ample storage, the space is a turnkey solution for a restaurant, boutique retail, or a serene yoga studio.
