When my husband first broke the news to me about the scheduled closing of our beloved local gem, Wet Hen Cafe, I was in shock.
Wet Hen Cafe is not any ordinary breakfast/brunch cafe in Reno. It's a special cafe, run by real people and is full of family history, experience, passion.
It was made with the intention to provide the perfect place to hang out and meet others, with it's cozy and inviting atmosphere and of course, delicious made from scratch food.
Like many others, I too have memories that were grown here.
Gymboree Play and Music, another one of our amazing businesses providing play classes, is a few doors down and the cafe was always the cherry on top at the end of my kid's classes, providing nourishment and something to look forward to after a fun day of playing and learning.
After 12 years of excellent service and food, the Cafe struggles with shortages of staff and inflated pricing of goods, among many other problems.
I think the whole community is with me when I say that you will be gladly missed and that we are forever thankful for the impression you made on our community.
Jackie, Don, and Staff, we wish you nothing but the best with the next chapter of your lives and will never forget your hard work, generosity, charming cafe, super fresh and tasty food, and your welcoming arms into your home away from home.
If you would like to show your love and support for this business and extend your best wishes, please don't hesitate to drop by and show them some love before they close.
Our community is filled with so many other amazing local businesses just like Wet Hen Cafe and we can do so much in helping keep them alive and strong.
Now and Then - Happy Memories at The Wet Hen Cafe
