Cafe Trios closing
July 9th, 2009 by tristan baurickThis month is Cafe Trios‘ last.
The coffee shop and wine bar on the east end of Winslow Way will close sometime in the next two weeks, likely on July 19.
“For a year and a half, you’ve allowed us to live our dream of creating a comfortable, sophisticated place – a relaxed place where people enjoy friends, family and community. You have helped us achieve these goals, and your enjoyment of Cafe Trios has been our greatest reward,” wrote owner Jamie Hinchey in an e-mail to customers. “Unfortunately, the simple reality of cash-flow has not worked in our favor, so we must say ‘Good Bye.’”
The cafe’s closure was noted on the Island Moms online discussion group.
“This is so sad,” wrote one commenter. “Cafe Trios is one of the best places to go on the island…fabulous people, atmosphere, and food. (It) would be a terrible loss for the island.”

Bainbridge is not a business-friendly community. It is too bad the local government doesn’t try and attract & retain businesses, would have gone a long way towards softening the economic impact. With relying nearly solely on real estate taxes & building permits, the city is shooting itself in the foot financially. Try looking at the local business regs & eliminating the formula food ordinance.
