Things have been on the up-and-up for owner Gabby Loubiere-Higgins over the past few years. Last summer, she expanded the café’s business, serving breakfast and brunch items on the weekends and lunchtime sandwiches during the week. However, the evolution of this small business wasn’t always a barrel of laughs.
In 2010, she received an offer to sell the business for only $20,000.
