To Our Dear Customers,
After 16 beautiful years, The Backstage Cafe will be serving its final meal on May 2nd.
This decision comes with heavy hearts. Saying goodbye to the place we’ve poured our soul into isn’t easy. But as we look back, our hearts are even fuller than they are heavy.
For 16 years, you’ve been more than customers. You were the reason we fired up the ovens each day with excitement. You trusted us with your first dates, your birthday dinners, wedding anniversaries, post wedding dinners, holiday parties, and your “just because” lunches. We’ve watched your families grow at our tables. We’ve laughed with you, cried with you, and celebrated life with you.
You made The Backstage Cafe more than a restaurant. You made it a gathering place. A second home.
We are deeply saddened to close this chapter, but we are endlessly grateful for the memories we made together. Every plate served, every conversation, every time you chose us. We will carry those memories with us always.
Thank you for 16 years of loyalty, laughter, and love. Thank you for letting us be part of your lives.
Our last day will be May 2nd, and we’d love nothing more than to share one more meal with you before then.
With all our love and gratitude,
Mike, Dawn, The Backstage Cafe Team
