The Weekly Wrap - February 14th, 2024

We're big fans of coffee shops and the role they can play in cultivating a strong sense of community - making new friends, learning new things, getting "the dirt" on what's happening in the neighborhood.  We hope The Weekly Wrap helps a bit with some of those things!

Fun Fact

February 14th is synonymous with Valentine's Day in much of the world.  We tend to associate the day with flowers, chocolates and (slightly) cheesy cards. Things were a little different back when this celebration began to take form. Learn more about the surprising history of Valentine's Day here.

Did You Know?

Have you ever noticed the Historic Richmond walking maps at Blockhouse? Did you know those were designed by one of our cafe regulars, Mr. Charlie Beyl? We are proud to call Mr. Charlie a friend and grateful to have such a talented artist in our community.  Learn more about his incredible work here.
