Another eatery located by the Broadway-City Hall SkyTrain station has announced it will be closing its doors: Lumiere Cafe.

The cafe took to Instagram to officially share that it will be closing its doors in the near future.

“This wasn’t an easy decision,” wrote Lumiere.

Best known for its selection of unique espresso and tea creations, Lumiere also serves an assortment of baked goods as well.

Despite the closure announcement, it has assured fans that this is just goodbye for now.

“We’re taking some time to reset, improve, and work towards coming back stronger. We don’t have an exact timeline yet, but we are doing our best to come back,” wrote Lumiere.

Many took to the comments to share how much they would miss the W. Broadway cafe.

“NOOOO!!!!! I’m so sad 😭😭😭 I hope it’s just a ‘see you later,’ not forever goodbye,” wrote one Instagram commenter.

“Nooooo! You had the best iced coffee drinks ever! Please come back soon,” added another.

“Truly the best espresso, but even better staff. Thank you for the happy faces during the early mornings and daytime breaks. You’ll all be missed!!” commented a third.

Lumiere Cafe’s final day of operation is March 28.

The cafe isn’t the only recent spot to shutter in the area, with many restaurants such as The Greek and Heritage Asian Eatery both having closed locations in the neighbourhood, citing the Broadway Subway construction delays as the reason for their closure. Other businesses, such as Fable Diner, have also gone on record to share the negative impacts the construction has had on their business.

Additionally,Ā Ramen One, the ramen restaurant with a focus on solo dining and located just steps from Broadway-City Hall Station, also closed its doors. However, it did not provide a reason for its closure, and a new concept called Oishinoya has opened in its place.
