Nature’s Oasis has announced that it is closing its east-side location at Van Aken District in Shaker Heights on or about Friday, February 7th. The store, which opened in 2019, was the second location for the Lakewood-based business that was founded by Elliott Endsley in that city in 2016.

“It’s with heavy hearts that we share some bittersweet news: After five wonderful years, our Van Aken District location will be closing, with a projected last day of February 7th. This decision wasn’t easy, as this space has been so much more than a café and grocery. It has been a place where relationships blossomed, stories were shared, and our community came together. We are deeply grateful to have been part of your lives-whether it was your morning coffee, a quick grocery stop, or simply a moment of connection,” an announcement read.

It’s business as usual in Lakewood, says management, but no word back on a planned Ohio City location that has been in the works for some time.
