Navigating These Challenging Times Together

Dear Valued Customers,

I hope this message finds you well and enjoying the unique comforts and joys that Café Leura offers. As CEO, I am both proud and privileged to have you as part of our community.

At Café Leura, we are guided by the Greek philosophy of *filoxenia*, the art of making strangers/customers feel like friends. This ethos is at the heart of everything we do, as we strive to create a warm welcoming and hospitable environment for all who visit us.

We are living in times marked by significant economic shifts, where the cost of living and operational expenses are rising steadily. In line with our commitment to *filoxenia*, we have done our utmost to absorb these increases while maintaining the high standards of quality and service that define our cafe.

However, to continue providing you with remarkable service and to remain a sustainable business, we find it necessary to adjust the pricing of certain items. This decision is made with careful consideration, ensuring we can continue to offer fulfilling employment to our team and contribute positively to our community.

We are committed to transparency and are here to answer any questions or concerns you might have regarding these changes. Our dedication to making your visits to Café Leura memorable remains unwavering, ensuring that each cup of coffee and every meal brings a sense of comfort and satisfaction, in true spirit of *filoxenia*.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. It means the world to us and is vital in navigating these times. We look forward to welcoming you again soon and hope that you will continue to enjoy the quality and value we strive to provide at Café Leura.

Warm regards,
