The Gathering Cafe in Summerville, SC Announces it’s Closing

In an emotional message on social media, The Gathering Cafe officially announced they are closing.

“This is not an easy post. We are incredibly emotional about what has happened in the last 8 months. This is our final post.

Running a small business in this day and time is nearly impossible. It’s why everyone keeps saying “support small business”. We made big decision to move our location to a bigger space with a lot more foot traffic thinking we would be able to finally take our concept to the next level. We didn’t make it for a number of reasons. Reasons we don’t want to revisit. It’s too painful.

We have loved connecting to our community and providing good healthy food to the people we serve. We already miss our customers and we are doing our best to navigate life in a new way. We aren’t out of the worst yet and kindness and good vibes are welcome and needed.

Please consider supporting small business. Not just restaurants but all mom and pop shops. No one deserves to work as hard as we all do to lose as hard as this.

Much love and appreciation to all of you who supported us all these years. ❤️”

  • I’m really sad to hear of the Gathering closing. We already are at a loss for quality places to eat. Now another has gone under is so disappointing. Very sorry for all of us. Thank you for the years of quality service and food.
