To our friends in Greater Grand Crossing: we're sorry to say that we closed our pilot store last December. We experienced ongoing infrastructure problems after the building fire in November, and sadly we could not resolve these with our landlord. Moving forward, we're working with Neighbor Capital on opening a new store in North Lawndale. We will miss Greater Grand Crossing. It has been our pleasure to serve you.

Our electricity is back on and we'll be open for business as usual, tomorrow, Friday, November 14!
