Who We Are
The Chive Cafe/Market
The Chive, Simply Good Café/Market is farm-to-table and as much locally sourced as possible. The menu is fresh, made from scratch, vegetable forward, and changes often based on what is coming from our local farmers.
We offer stay awhile, indoor seating with counter service in the dining area. For those in a hurry, we have a convenient take-out market featuring our recipes in a to-go format and other local made, natural products. We are a community invested business, health conscious, and sustainably focused. It is “simply good” food with simply good beer.
Nolan and Michelle combined their dreams in 2017, developed a plan, built our current cool space, and opened in August 2020.
With great determination and perseverance, Nolan and Michelle forged through 18 months of unpredictability. But through it all, a fabulous group of customers have become our friends and have given us a reason to continue on.
Nolan is now expanding to distribution and Michelle is growing her weekly subscription box program and market and baking program. Monthly beer and food specials and events keep customers coming back. We look forward to 4 stages of expansion in the future adding a full kitchen, expanded market, expanded brewery, event space, wood fired oven, expanded indoor seating, expanded patio space and more.
