They're relocating to the Old Brewers Corner location at 3105 Gillam Road. Manager Kate Smith dropped the news, and while no exact opening date is set, the vibes are high for a comeback. The place kicked off back in 2018, founded by Christian Overgard and Luke Pitts, who still own it today.

Now with this new home locked in, afterwards poised to keep the literary nights flowing
