Artisan Cafe in downtown Carson City now under new ownership
The Artisan Cafe, located at 701 S Carson St., in downtown Carson City is now under new ownership to begin the new decade.
According to Kira McElroy, who took over the cafe on Jan. 1 with husband Rubin, the previous owner, Jeanne Day, was ready to take on new adventures, and offered to pass along ownership to the husband-wife team.
Kira has worked for the Artisan Cafe for years as a manager, she said, and decided to take the plunge when the opportunity came to take it over.
However, aside from an addition of biscuits and gravy to the breakfast menu, the Cafe will remain virtually unchanged.
“We’re very excited to have taken it over,” said Kira. “I’ve been here for a long time, I love this place and this community and we’re just happy to be a part of it.”
Dey said she is working closely with the McElroys during the transition.
"We look forward to following the traditions of great food, friendly service and a wonderful welcoming environment that makes people feel at home," said Kira.
The transition of ownership and operations will be completion February 1, 2020, said Dey, and the McElroy family looks forward to being in Carson City for many years to come.
The hours of operation will stay the same: Monday through Friday from 6am - 2pm and coupons for locals lunch specials can be found in Wise Buy Magazine.
"I have loved every single moment at the Artisan and I am excited for the future and glad that I have found the perfect family to maintain excellent service and stay strong in the community of Carson City as well as in the Green Dining District," said Dey.
