As of May 1st, the State of Illinois is continuing its statewide “Shelter in Place” mandate but with modifications to allow a safer, gradual reopening of businesses and organizations throughout Illinois. We will continue to closely monitor any and all information and new directives from government and health agencies as our staff and Board lay out our own path to reopening the coffee bar and rental spaces.

We are encouraged and grateful beyond words for the love and kindness you have shown us during the last 38 days (and counting). We are working hard behind the scenes to acquire necessary PPE materials including masks, gloves, and shielding to protect our customers and staff when we are finally able to open our doors. We are modifying our processes to balance ease of operations with safety and are actively engaged with the Winnebago County Health Department's cleaning, sanitation, and social distancing guidelines to provide the best possible environment possible for everyone that visits us. If you would like to support our efforts and our staff during this challenging time, please check out our new "Support Us" page (https://www.katiescup.com/support-us) and consider making a purchase or tax deductible donation.

For those that have scheduled rental events in May… We will be contacting all affected parties regarding their rental events within the week to provide the best possible resolution during this chaotic and uncertain time. If you have an event scheduled with us for the month of May and have any questions or concerns, please contact us at katiescupcoffee@gmail.com. Our team is working from home, so please bear with us as responses may be delayed.

Thank you so much for your generosity and love of Katie’s Cup. We look forward to welcoming you back through our doors again very soon!
