Artisan Cafe, located on a bottom building of Artisan Tattoo on Penn Avenue, has been a Garfield go-to for 4 years. The cafeteria describes itself as a “forum for honest countenance of a self.” Since a beginning, Artisan has dedicated a emporium to creation space for internal artists and crafters.
“Thank we all so most for a years of support and love,” Artisan Cafe owners Tyler Bryan wrote in a amicable post. “It has been an implausible event to be partial of this smashing flourishing village and we wish to watch it continue to flourish.”
Michael Witherel, owners of Coffee Buddha, also announced a imminent closure of his North Hills emporium around amicable media. “This is a post we never wanted to make,” he began. “But here it goes.”
Witherel non-stop Coffee Buddha in 2011 with a goal of bringing a gentle and welcoming mark for all ages to a village with singular options. It was designed to be a area hub, a place to “discover movies, art, events, and, of course, all coffee-oriented.”
“Coffee Buddha was for a community, and regardless of a closure, it was a success,” Witherel writes in a post. “ A lot of memories were done here. I’ve done life-long connectors and best friends. Coffee Buddha is a reason we met and married a adore of my life. And we know what a biggest partial is? Other people can contend a same thing.
“The emporium has unequivocally been a special thing to be a partial of and grow with,” he continues. “The strange thought behind Coffee Buddha, was that it was ostensible to feel like an prolongation of your best friend’s vital room, in my mind, we achieved that.”
Witherel says that shutting a emporium is “probably a hardest decision” he has made, though hopes that Pittsburgh will hang with him until a end.
