Someday Café will CLOSE by August 15

[ron_newman]

I just came back from Someday, and confirmed the bad news. The café has not renewed its lease with the landlord (Chatham Light Realty), and the café's owner (Gus Rancatore, of Toscanini's ice cream) is disinclined to reopen it elsewhere in Davis Square. Unless someone changes his mind, the café must vacate by August 15, and most likely will close around August 1.

If you don't want this to happen, call Richard at Chatham Light, 617-354-4466 , and e-mail gus@tosci.com .

(for earlier discussion, see the post immediately below this one.)

[EDIT (6/27, 12:10 am): after exchanging e-mail and a phone call with Ian Judge, the manager of the Somerville Theatre, I have edited this post so that it no longer says that "the landlord is making them leave". Ian's statement is here. I'm going to leave the phone number and e-mail address in place; they came from a sign at the Someday's counter last night.]

From the staff or the patrons? I'm sorry that you had a bad experience, and I'm not disputing that you did. But I go in there often, sometimes with the man I'm heterosexually & monogamously married to, and it's never an issue.

The staff. It wasn't one bad experience, it was about 11 before I decided the place could do without my business. Here's a tip to the Diesel staff: when you see a friendly, repeat customer 8 times in a row, try brushing your emo bangs out of your eyes and actually acknowledge them as a person, not a wallet.

How weird. I've gone to Diesel any number of times, sometiemes alone, sometimes with another guy, sometimes with a woman. The staff have always been friendly to me, and I've never thought they had even the slightest interest in my sexual preference.
