About the event
Before The Roses is a free community night at Eden Cafe created for connection, conversation, and warmth during the heart of winter.
February can feel quiet — and sometimes a little isolating. This evening is a simple invitation to gather, share a drink, play a game, and spend time around other people without expectations or pressure.
There’s no structured programming and no obligation to connect in any particular way. Come solo or with a friend. Sit at a table, join a card game, talk with someone new, or simply enjoy being in the space.
We’ll have free food and drinks available while supplies last, casual table games throughout the café, and a relaxed atmosphere designed to make it easy to just be present.
This is not a dating event — and it doesn’t have to be anything at all.
It’s about showing up, warming up, and being part of a community.
