Judging from the Google reviews, this place probably closed sometime this Spring. The closing is also marked "Temporary", but we'll see. You might think that sitting across from two campuses of hungry kids would be a good place for a sandwich shop, but I have to say that the Google reviews have about the highest concentration of one star ratings I have seen anywhere, so perhaps you really can't sell sizzle.

If you click on the pictures that come up when you google Collins Printing Two Notch, you'll see a number of them from five years ago with furniture labeled for sale, so I believe that was their final office clearance. Interestingly, Google thinks they are still in business at this location.

Also interestingly, and I'm sure totally unrelated to Collins, there is a huge, unmarked hole in the ground in between them and the former RAW Wheels & Tires.

Looking at the Google Reviews, as well as the cafe's Facebook, it seems that O'Hara's was not making book as a table-service cafe, and tried converting to a counter-service bagel shop, which didn't bring in enough new traffic while alienating the existing clientele. This also invoved Rules #1 & #6.

The owners remain committed to the spot, and it sounds from the most recent Facebook post, that something new may be in the offing.
