On a Wednesday afternoon, Angela Yeo, owner of Le Café Gourmet, tamped down coffee grounds as a worker manned the cash register in the small Parisian-style cafe.
Like many businesses lately, the downtown eatery is stretching to accommodate eager customers while being severely short staffed. Yeo and her husband are working with a skeleton crew of four, which isn’t enough to keep them open for their usual seven days a week and barely gets them through their opening hours.
As a result, the cafe has announced they’ll be closed on Thursdays as they work to fill staff positions. Yeo said they need at least three more staffers to work comfortably.
