I cannot say enough about Debbie and all of the staff at The Old 97 cafe. It was simply a fluke that we even found this little gem in Kenmore. I couldn't imagine having my wedding any where else. The venue is beautiful, the food is wonderful and the staff is so fun and amazing. The planning process was painless and all of our requests were handled appropriately. Debbie definitely took out the stress of the planning and execution of our wonderful day.
