West Seattle Waffle Shop Closes Amid Rising Minimum Wage Concerns

A business owner in West Seattle expressed deep sorrow over the closure of her beloved waffle shop, attributing the decision to the city's new $20 minimum wage mandate. The owner, who has poured her heart into creating a welcoming space for the community, shared that the financial strain of increased labor costs made it impossible to continue operating.

In her emotional farewell, she reflected on how her shop served not just as a place to enjoy delicious waffles, but also as a safe gathering spot for locals. The closure signifies more than just the loss of a business; it represents the end of a cherished community hub where friendships were formed and memories created.

The owner admitted to crying every day since making the difficult decision, highlighting the personal toll that such economic changes can have on small businesses. As she prepares to close her doors for the last time, she hopes that her story sheds light on the challenges faced by local entrepreneurs in an ever-evolving economic landscape.
