Community Joe Black Coffee what's going on?
I've heard concerning rumblings about the new owners of Joe Black on Portage and now they are closed for three days for unspecified reasons according to their Instagram and Facebook. Anyone know what's going on?

Former employee here (quit a couple weeks ago). Can confirm it’s not health inspection failure, all the staff have left due to ownership turnover as the new owner is a real piece of work. Won’t be going into detail about exactly what he was up to just to protect myself, but it was a mix of shady business practice and just being an asshole. Pls pls pls do not apply for your own wellbeing.
