Rosemount Café is turning two, and we’re celebrating with a special anniversary event in Weston Village. Join us for an afternoon of community, food, and entertainment. We’ll be serving up smash burgers hot off the grill, while the kids enjoy a clown entertainer with balloons and plenty of laughs.
A live DJ will be spinning throughout the day to keep the energy high, and of course, all of our usual offerings—coffee, tea, pastries, and more—will be available. It’s our way of saying thank you for supporting us over the past two years. Bring your friends, family, and neighbors, and let’s celebrate together.
