"First rule in roadside beet sales, put the most attractive beets on top. The ones that make you pull the car over and go:
'Wow. I need this beet right now'.
Those are the money beets".

--D. K. S.

We pulled the car over.
We needed these beets right now.


Farm stand visit today! -- got a few foodie ideas we wanted to tinker with during this (seemingly-never-ending hiatus 🙄) & beets are a beloved inspiration!

We've been frequenting this stand over in New Holland for years, since the days -- We LOVE their selection and ✨🌱super fresh, beauoootiful produce🌱✨ grown right there! 🫶

Dear Black Cat friends --

Our experience of owning and operating The Black Cat Tavern for the past 7 years can be best defined as nothing less than surreal and bizarre. So it seems fitting that as per surreal and bizarre circumstances, the Black Cat and our pierogi adventures are taking a surreal and bizarre direction.

Please join us for our last day of service at 12th & Oregon: Saturday, February 25th.

The Universe has decided to kick us in this new trajectory (more on that later), and we can merely follow along with immense gratitude in our hearts for the amazing guests, artists, performers and regulars we have come to know over the years, AND for *the* most wonderful, talented, & dedicated bar professionals who have tirelessly kept our business going strong -- THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!

We are looking forward to sharing the silver-lining of this, & the next chapter -- Follow us at: where we will continue the story very soon!

But for now I guess it's time to say Good-b... actually, instead let's stay true to our weird & wrap this with a quote from one of our favorite Simpson's episodes...

"Well, I guess this is it.

You mean, like, good-bye?

Let's just call it, 'Smell You Later'..."

Love, luck, & pierogi,

-Marlise & Tom

*************

• Gift Certificates will be honored until service concludes on Feb 25 & honored at our TBA new location.

• We will also be in touch privately with our Event Hosts who have upcoming dates scheduled.
