After a series of construction delays, Anecdote Cafe has softly opened for business in the Golden Triangle. The cafe fills the hole left in the neighborhood’s coffee scene when Rooster & Moon shuttered last September after eight years in business.

Anecdote’s interior layout wll feel familiar to Rooster & Moon regulars, but with a splash of bright new colors.

Anecdote is currently running with a limited menu, but plans to add new baked goods as the kitchen is completed and up and running. Along with fresh pastries, look for community events and art installations in the near future.
