To our valued customers and friends,
As many of you know, our family business has been on the market for the past couple of years as we searched for the right person to continue what we have built over almost 14 years.
Unfortunately, throughout this process we have had several potential buyers who, despite showing serious interest, ultimately did not proceed. This has made an already difficult situation even more challenging, both emotionally and financially.
After much thought and many difficult conversations, it is with great sadness that we have made the decision to permanently close our doors.
This decision has not been made lightly. Sue’s physical health has continued to decline, and the long hours and physical demands of running the café are no longer sustainable. As heartbreaking as it is, the time has come to put health and family first.
We are incredibly proud of what Turn Back Time Café has become over the last 13+ years. We have celebrated many milestones with you, shared countless cups of coffee and meals, watched families grow, and had the privilege of being part of this wonderful community.
We would like to make a special mention to every staff member who has been part of our journey over the years. Many of you became more than employees, you became part of our extended family. Thank you for your hard work, dedication, loyalty, laughter, and the care you showed our customers every single day. Turn Back Time Café would not have been what it was without each and every one of you.
To every customer who has walked through our doors, every local business that supported us, every staff member who worked alongside us, and every friend we have made along the way – thank you. Your support, loyalty, and kindness have meant more than words can express.
While our chapter is coming to an end, we are currently working with a buyer whom we believe you will love, and we sincerely hope you will show him the same wonderful support and loyalty that you have shown us over the years. It gives us great comfort knowing that the café may continue to serve the community that has supported us for so long.
Before we say goodbye, we would love the opportunity to serve you one last time. We will be opening on Monday morning from 8:00am for drinks only, giving us one final chance to thank our customers in person and share a coffee together.
We will forever be grateful for the memories, friendships, and community that made the last 14 years so special.
With heartfelt thanks,
Sue, Courtney and Family ❤️
