Dillon Allen, his girlfriend, Elizabeth Brunotte, and brother, John Allen opened this Brookville breakfast spot on May 31st. Located at 302 Market Street, after having success with their coffee shops in Englewood and West Milton. The coffee shops had been successful and they wanted to offer a full service eatery.In mid-December they posted a rally call, asking for support on their Scramble by Cafe 19 Facebook Page:
” With food costs increasing this year quicker than we can adjust for, sales declining and weekend sales dropping off were in threat of closing our doors. I’m not too proud to say we need help and we’re coming to you for that.”
They had a solid response to they outcry, but in reality, it just wasn’t enough.
Today Dillon posted this: 
“Over the last couple weeks, we’ve been discussing the viability of what we set out to make with our scramble location.
Last week I was in a panic because of how bad our finances were with trying to fix this building.
What it came down to was we don’t have the capital, resources or traffic to pull off what needs to be done to fix all these issues. Rising food costs and slimmer margins have not helped either. Our costs of goods have gone up substantially this year and it makes it even harder to figure out another way to pull it off.
Our landlord has been so gracious to us, helping where he can, and this community has been so wonderful to us but it’s just not sustainable.
Our last day of operation at our Brookville location will be Saturday January 4th. Our Englewood and West Milton locations will remain open and any unused gift cards can be used at any of our other locations.
We hate to become another statistic of this location and I did everything in my power to not let it happen, we just don’t have the resources to continue on without taking everything down in the process.
Thank you all for the memories that scramble has made, the friends that we’ve made along the way and I hope to see you again!“
There’s a new breakfast spot open in Brookville. Opened last Saturday 
One of the most painful things about losing your home and belongings in a disaster, whether it be fire, flood or wind, is the loss of photos, personal momentos and childhood treasures. It’s the loss of those precious and irreplaceable items that cuts a particularly painful wound.
