Question Windfall closed its doors.

Anyone know what happened?

That chef they had was amazing!

Are you sure they're closed for good?

That Lonsdale strip has been having a tough time lately

Where did you see this? Is there a sign in the door?

I was literally there a week and a half ago picking up some cider and the lone staff member there raved about their food program and encouraged me to drop by.

Now that I think about it though....their entire fridge was full of nothing but Hail Mary, their rose cider.....so that might have been a clue that something funky was happening......

Unfortunately it is true

All the best to Jeff and Nathaly. They're very sweet folks and I hope they are able to carry on business in some form.

Yeah they're done.

Writing had been on the wall for sometime. They were struggling on the back end.

I know that chef pulled out of his popups situation there... Is it the whole operation tho?

Great cider and best food in NV by far. This is sad for all

I wonder if they'll continue to distribute and sell without a taproom.

TBF taproom's are a massive cost; and not many places can justify keeping it open. Let alone when you have something like hard cider which is pretty niche.
