Looking Ahead
To Cobble guests, new and old—
Cobble will be taking a gap year in 2024, and we will use this time to explore new opportunities for Cobble and the future of what it means to dine out. The past three years have been gratifying, and we are overjoyed with the positive response to our unique dining concept. We hope to see you before the year is out, and if not, we’ll see you downstairs at Barlette!
Our last dinner at Cobble was on December 31, 2023.
Lots of love,
Emily & Rachel (and great grandma Berg)
