Cheers, Observatory! ❤️🍻
At the end of July, we will celebrate our 6th birthday as a brand and host one last party at our beloved Observatory branch.
This will be our final day trading at this location, a bittersweet moment as we built this shop ourselves, by hand!
After that, we’ll be moving to a new site up the road and reopening in early August.
The World Cup, the fire, the ups the downs, the parties, the pizza, the events we hosted, the birthday celebrations, Obs will always be famous!
Come and enjoy Obs one last time (or five more times) over the next two months.
