Meat & Gather

05/30/2026

It is with heavy hearts that we announce that today will be Meat & Gather’s final day of service.

Over the past two years, we have poured our hearts into this business and have been incredibly grateful for the support, encouragement, and friendships we’ve found within this community. What started as a dream became a reality because of all of you, and for that we will be forever thankful.

Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control, our current lease has been terminated and we are being forced to leave our current location. We worked tirelessly to secure a new home for Meat & Gather and believed we had found the perfect next chapter, but that opportunity unexpectedly fell through at the last minute.

While we are deeply disappointed by how these events unfolded, we refuse to view this as the end of our story. Sometimes doors close so better ones can open, and we remain hopeful that we will find a new location and return stronger than ever.

To everyone who ordered a sandwich, shared a charcuterie board, recommended us to a friend, attended an event, or simply stopped by to say hello—thank you. Your support has meant more than words can express.

We invite you to stop by one last time today so we can thank you in person.

We hope this isn’t goodbye, just “see you later.”

With gratitude and love,

The Oeltjenbruns Family
