In Jena, the popular trend café "Koro Café & Ice Cream" remains closed for an indefinite period, a fact that triggers concern in the local community. While the once inviting red doors of the café on the market have been tightly closed since mid -September, furniture inside continues to be visible through the windows, which raises questions about the future of the restaurant.

The search for answers: What are the background?

The café, which was known in Jena for its variety of ice cream and vegan dishes since May 2022, has closed the doors due to a spokeswoman for “company holidays”. These “holidays” now extend over four weeks, which everyone who comes by clearly notices. The closure of the café affects not only the regular customers, but also the vegetarian and vegan community of the city, which is dependent on the broad range.

A meeting point for the community

The Koro Café was considered a central point of contact for many Jena. It not only offered culinary delights, but also a room for exchange and encounters. Vegans and vegetarians found a welcome variety here, which is often missing in the catering trade. Through this closure, many people who identified with the café feel limited in their selection and their social interactions.

Future prospects for the Koro Café

While other locations of the Koro Café remain in Berlin, Jena remains in the balance. The location in the Lichtstadt served as a test run for the franchise company, which is known for its food primarily through its online shop. Whether the doors will ever open again is in the stars, but the positive response from the city leaves room for hope for a return.

Wait together and hope

The closure of the "Koro Café & Ice Cream" illustrates how important such gastronomic offers are for local culture. The stability of gastronomic diversity in Jena also depends on the return of such innovative concepts. The people in the city are invited to compete for the maintenance of such cafes through their voice and their commitment to maintain that the doors of one of their favorite restaurants do not remain closed forever. The developments are expected by many, and the community hopes for soon news.
