Pride is about being seen — and that's what we do here. This June, every Saturday brings a new set of wines from producers who don't always get the spotlight: women, Black, LGBTQ+, and family-owned makers crafting something worth talking about. Buy a bottle, and the first round's on us — your choice of our premium coffee, tea, or espresso. Because some things from the café days are too good to leave behind. Mark your calendars: wines and champagne every Saturday, June 6–27
