Wow. Tempting, very tempting. Anyone wanna consider going in w/ me? ;)
I wonder what Gutenberg is paying for rent.
The fundamental risk is that if the flood-wall breaks (or alternatively the drainage fails), then you have a giant mold experiment (among other problems)…
I believe that the owners of the cafe also own the building.
Their service has always been the pits. I don’t like to kick someone when they’re down but I haven’t been there since I moved here 2 years ago for that reason.
I would have liked to have been a regular customer but they just didn’t give me any incentive.
I have visited Cafe Gutenberg a time or two and have always found the service and the service personnel to be superb.
That’s really disappointing to hear (unless someone picks it up and runs it).
From the looks of the sign it seems as if only the building is for sale. It doesn’t necessarily mean that the business is also for sale. Has anyone heard differently?
Sadly, I heard from one of their part-time employees that the cafe will be closing sometime over the next couple of weeks.
I called: the business is for sale.
Wow…It’s such a great place. Good coffee, good food, great books…Hopefully a neighborhood friendly owner will keep it going.
It is ashame that Richmond will lose such a unique place. I really like the atmosphere of the cafe. I would frequent the cafe once a week until they changed chefs and the menu changed. That is when I noticed the selections were not as appetizing and the food definitely went downhill.
This week’s issue of stye confirms that Gutenberg is ailing:
RTD 2/21 – Unsinkable cafe may close – Shop that survived floods now threatened by loss of two partners
[...] see the waterline near the top of the photo. The flood didn’t close the place for long, but a squabble among partners might shut the doors for good this Sunday. Posted by john m at 6:47AM under RVANews-news, history, real estate | Tags: Cafe [...]
So we will be up one coffee/winebar/restaurant (Aurora @ 4th and Grace) and down another (CG). It’s a shame that such a cool area (Shockoe Bottom) is still struggling. The market area doesn’t look much different from when I got here 7 years ago, but the surrounding neighborhood is booming.
GlobeHopper looks like it’ll be neat, and there is that Starbucks opening on Cary, too. Folks like their Starbucks.
This seems like a good place to lament the passing of 17.5, who never made it back after Gaston.
It is kind of shitty that these 2 partners out of the country are putting this kind of pressure on the cafe. One of these so-called partners abandoned the cafe in a drunken fog years ago. I wonder what their motivations were in the first place.
I just stopped by Gutenberg this morning for coffee. It appears that they will be open for about another month and a half. According to the person with whom I spoke, their other potential investor seems pretty convincing, so that is what has motivated them to stay open longer. I’m crossing my fingers really hard that they can make the deal work!
I am crossing my fingers too! We don’t get down there as much as we would like but we love Gutenberg and would really hate to see them leave!
they are going to stay open, I know the owner, and they found a partner, they are staying open!!!
