I believe that's the woman that owns the building and kicked Linda out.

Linda's is great and still remember when she was just working for the other place before opening her own place.

She should move a bigger place now. Always packed in there.

I still remember that grocery store on the corner there by 235, but forgot the name.

I was talking with her yesterday. The good news is that all the procurements for the plaza she is now in all fell thru, so she won't have to leave anytime soon. She'd like to have a bigger place, but is financially strapped. And after that fiasco in Ltown, she said she'd never leave Lex Park again.

Linda did not own the building in Leonardtown. She rented the building from Irene Parrish and was unfairly evicted. Irene was secretly undermining Linda's efforts to build a family oriented and affordable establishment in Leonardtown to preserve the town and build foot traffic for other businesses. Because of Irene Parish, Linda's Cafe is now a memory. Irene is trying to start a new café in hopes of keeping the clientele that Linda worked so hard to build. I was there for the tree lighting. The hot dogs they served were horrible and the hot chocolate was disgusting. I'm not sure what Irene is trying to reproduce but it sure isn't Linda's Cafe quality. Historic Leonardtown has worked so hard in building a new store front and it is being ruined by people like Irene. I encourage you not to visit her establishment.

Hubby and I are regulars there and she told us the same thing! Thank goodness I don't know where we would eat breakfast most mornings.

There is also another new place on the Square in Leonardtown...The Chillin station or something like that ( not real sure of the name )...it is designed to give the youth, Middle/High School kids a coffee house type place to hang out....I checked it out at the tree lighting.....I am all for anything postive for the youth to help keep them off the streets and away from trouble...please, if you are in the area give them your support....I do not know them personally, but support what they are doing....my family and I will be checking them out...they serve some food items, of course it is stuff teens like Pizza/Hot Dogs etc....they have large screen TV's and looks like they have a Band that comes in to entertain at times...

Not true. She still has the ORIGINAL Linda's Cafe in Lex Park. but it now has new seating thanks to the L'town store!
