Hey everyone!

If you’re not doing anything this evening (Wednesday, August 19th), please join us as James Groh from WTMJ4 visits our neighborhood to film a segment for his ‘My Block’ series which will air on the network at a later date. He’ll be cruising up and down our street talking to neighbors about what makes our community special and visiting the local business on the block (Tess, Champion’s Pub and The OG Pub & Grille).

To help lure you in, we’ll be offering half off appetizers tonight (one per table) if you mention the code: TMJ4.

Their crew should be at Tess around 6:30pm, so please join us this evening if you can. We’d love to see you on our patio and on our televisions!

Hey everybody, we have some repairs to a vital piece of equipment that are taking a little longer than expected. Hence, we’ll be closed tonite (Tuesday, June 30th) but will be back open for dinner service on Wednesday, July 1st….and we’ll even do our 1/2 price w**es (on bottles $50 or less) so that no one misses out!

🐾 Big Hearts, Full Bellies, and Happy Cats! 🐾

We are absolutely thrilled to share the incredible results from our fundraiser at Tess on Saturday, 06/13/26!

First, a massive THANK YOU to everyone who came out, dined in, and ordered delicious food to support Almost Home Cat Rescue. Seeing our community show up for our rescue kitties means the world to us.

Second, we need to give the biggest, loudest round of applause to the wonderful team at Tess. Not only were they amazing partners, but they went above and beyond to round up their donation to a whopping $750.00! 😭❤️

Partners like Tess make it possible for us to keep doing what we do—saving lives and finding forever homes for cats in need.

Please show Tess some love in return! Go follow their page, visit them for your next dinner out, and let them know how much our community appreciates their incredible generosity.

Thank you all for eating for a cause! 🐈✨
