A beloved Buffalo coffee shop, Remedy House, which closed in February due to financial issues and mismanagement, is set to reopen under new leadership. Brent Martone, a former employee, has taken over the lease with a business partner, aiming to breathe new life into the establishment. Martone, who has a deep connection with the coffee shop and its neighborhood, plans to maintain his hands-on approach in various roles from server to cook. The reopening is highly anticipated by the community and former employees, who are returning to work under the new management. This reboot represents not just a revival of the coffee shop but also a restoration of trust and commitment among the workers, who had previously faced numerous challenges, including unpaid wages and unsafe working conditions.
