"Blue Bottle is set to leave the iconic WC Morse building in Oakland's Temescal district on September 26, per a sign on the cafe's door. Blue Bottle has occupied the historic former car dealership since 2014 and used to offer espresso tech repairs, visible through a plastic partition in the space. The cafe has recently shaved down its opening hours, and an employee said declining business made continuing unviable."
"The cafe plans to sell its space and is actively seeking a buyer. "With a week or two left of service, we are looking to turn this into a win for us and our landlord by selling to an established restaurateur looking for a beautiful turn-key ready restaurant space in a reviving downtown," a September 15 Instagram post reads. Stay tuned on Instagram for updates on their next moves."
Blue Bottle will leave the WC Morse building in Oakland's Temescal district on September 26, per a sign on the cafe's door. Blue Bottle occupied the former car dealership since 2014 and previously offered espresso tech repairs visible through a plastic partition. The cafe cut its opening hours and an employee said declining business made continuing unviable; workers organized a picket this summer after a staff member was fired following union recognition requests. Roasted and Raw announced its upcoming closure on Instagram, plans to sell its space and is actively seeking a buyer for its downtown location.
