La Fleur Café has moved on from 9th Street

La Fleur Café & Market has closed at 437 E. Ninth St. between Avenue A and First Avenue after more than three years in business. 

The Café's Instagram account states they are relocating, though it doesn't mention yet where. 

The woman-owned space offered "wellness, thrifting and community." By day, La Fleur provided a café service and coworking space... with alcohol-free specialty drinks (like the CBD-infused turmeric latte) in the evening. There were also open mics, artisan pop-ups, art shows and tarot readings. 

The DOH closed La Fleur for several months this spring and early summer, per a GoFundMe about the situation, "over a few minor but unresolved maintenance issues — including, unbelievably, a fine for not having plastic straws." 

Per the owner, Dee: 
This comes after nearly three years of personal sacrifice, rebuilding, and growth. I started La Fleur with my own savings, family support, and a deep belief in the power of community. We've hosted hundreds of events, championed small businesses, supported creatives of all backgrounds, and built something truly unique...all while bootstrapping and scraping by.
