Attractive location is lost: The end of a trend café in Jena

A popular trend café on the market in Jena for a long time provided culinary diversity and enthusiasm among the locals. But suddenly the red doors of the café are closed, and a large white banner announces indefinite company holidays. What is behind this sudden closure?

Since May 2022, the franchise company "Koro Café & Ice Cream" in Jena offered a wide selection of vegan and vegetarian dishes that attracted many visitors. The café was not only for vegans, but for all lovers of healthy and sustainable foods.

The closure of the café in mid -September came as a surprise and left many regular customers disappointed. A spokeswoman confirmed to the "Ostthüringer Zeitung" (OTZ) that the café remains closed for an indefinite period. This marks the end of an era for those who appreciated the café as a special place.

Originally Jena was an experiment as a location for the "Koro Café & Ice Cream". The company is actually known for its online shop with a variety of healthy foods. Whether the café will ever open again remains uncertain, but the response in Jena was positive, which gives hope for a potential reopening.

The closure of the café not only marks the end of a culinary meeting point, but also the loss of an attractive location in Jena Center. The future of the building and the surrounding business remains uncertain for the time being, and the local community hopes for new impulses to fill the gap that has left the trend café.
