Springfield’s downtown Winans Coffee & Chocolate will close this weekend after nine years.

The café will consolidate operations to its 1402 N. Limestone St. location in the NCF Savings Bank retail space, according to a letter sent to downtown businesses. The last day of operation for the downtown store at 32 N. Fountain Avenue is Sunday.

The existing downtown Winans team will move to the Limestone Street location.

“This isn’t goodbye! It’s a new chapter for Winans and we can’t wait to see you there,” the café said in the letter.

Winans opened its Limestone location in November 2020, and it features a drive-thru window and patio.

The News-Sun has reached out to Winans downtown for comment.
