Nearly four years after arriving at St. Petersburg’s Warehouse Arts District, a beloved cafe is saying goodbye.

The Chelsea, at 2462 5th Ave. S, took to social media to tell followers that this would be the cafe’s last week in business, telling one commenter that the last day is Sunday, June 16.

“Thank you to all the wonderful people who were a part of The Chelsea St Pete!!,” it wrote. “I hope we pop up again one day.”

Furniture and art from the ridiculously cute, cozy, and pet-friendly coffee shop staple will also be on sale.
