What's happening with Reuben Cafe?

We're really sorry about the recent closures.

Long story short, I've run myself down and gotten sick. As Reuben Cafe is running on a single person doing the coffee and food (I've had help for organizing and running events but the rest has rested on my shoulders), making for a single point of failure, I've had to shut down the cafe while I try and rest up and get my health back on track.

I will post daily updates with whether we're open or closed. This has also caused a disruption in events.

With any luck, we should be back up and running very soon.

To anyone coming in tonight:

It's cold out and so we've made the executive decision not to open our front windows. You'll need to push the door to enter.

The pay off is totally worth it though! No freezing bits off. Just warmth and comfort.
