NEW VENDOR ALERT! 🚨 Proud to serve personal sized cheesecakes from our great friends at Joey's 307 at Cedar Lake. The Grabski family has always welcomed us with open arms, and we are so happy to be able to work with them and sell some of their product in our cafe.

Introducing the next vendor that we will have at Cafe Vinci. Give a warm welcome to our good friends from Geddes Bakery & Pastry Shop. We became very close to this family after filming an episode of The Empire Plate at their establishment. We will be serving up some of their fresh pies for slices, frozen whole pies to take home, baklava, spanakopita, and some other goodies. We couldn't be happier to work with such a great family.

This week, we are announcing another vendor whose products we will be carrying at our cafe. The Zayas family have been a staple for many years in bakeries in the Utica area well before Ramon's Bakery opened. That experience and passion is something that reflects the product that they make in the best way. We are so excited to work with them here at Cafe Vinci. We will be carrying their bagels, donuts, and some of their other goodies. Have you tried Ramon's yet?

The cat is out of the bag!! So things have been crazy. We originally believed that we would be open by March 1st. As you can tell, that did not happen. HOWEVER, we have been working on big changes, and that is because we are moving our location.. but only a few doors away. We will be moving into Bowl Boss in July. There will be more room inside and outside for everyone to enjoy. We can't tell you how excited we are to get going! See you soon!
