No matter how you slice it, our new hours are going to be sweet! V3.8
We switched the podcast back on during our commute for a quick update to share big news about new hours at the bistro ... and ... *Sunday*🥳 After a soft transition week in mid-September, we’ll be open Wednesday–Sunday (no more Tuesdays), including our first Sunday on September 27. Planned hours are Wednesday 10–5, Thursday/Friday 7–3, Saturday 8–3, and Sunday 8–2, with early mornings offering a smaller menu and easy parking. We also share our dessert lounge dream, team growth, wholesale partners, a run club, and one really big life announcement.

Spring Roundup & Switch Bistro Runners : V3.7
It's time to take a look back at the spring and ahead to summer in Santa Cruz! This episode we gush over a newly expanded beverage menu, bistro-forward food highlights like the popular salmon rillettes with toasted baguette, and the caprese tartine makes its summer debut. We've also got a new team in the Bistro and at our Wednesday and Saturday farmer's markets (plus a market announcement!) Knee deep in birthday, graduation, and wedding seasons, we took a trip to Clementina, a fully gluten-free Italian restaurant in San Francisco, for Amanda's birthday, and drop some details on the Switch Bistro Runners team for the July 26 Wharf to Wharf race. Take a listen!
