✨ THANK YOU, CLEVELAND ✨

We had an absolutely wonderful weekend seeing so many of our regulars and meeting new customers, too!

The support from our Cleveland community is truly appreciated and is endlessly inspiring to us. Closing for two weekends in a row is never ideal for a small business, but we’re incredibly thankful that our team and customers were able to stay safe and warm during the winter weather.

We can’t wait to see everyone this week as we celebrate Valentine’s Day with a stunning menu 💕

With love and gratitude,

✨ HAPPY NEW YEAR ✨

As we welcome 2026, we are thrilled to announce that Ruddle’s will officially become a Ma and Pa shop ✨💛✨

From the very beginning, our goal has been to create a space that is safe, welcoming, and supportive; and now we are more motivated than ever to continue that mission.

As we reflect on the privilege of bringing a child into this world, we do so with deep gratitude and humility.

We want to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for supporting Ruddle’s. Our amazing customers are the reason we can earn an honest and fair living through this little hole-in-the-wall café we love so deeply - the reason we can now start the family we have always dreamed of.

We look forward to meeting our little future co-owner this Spring! Kaylee’s last day before maternity leave will be Sunday, March 15th.

With love and blessings,
Kaylee & Janson Brown
Owners of Ruddle’s Bread & Book
