Kubal Coffee Auburn, which opened in late November, closed Friday due to what owner Matt Godard described as “unavoidable economic realities.”
Staff reported insufficient training, long wait times, and missing menu items, while some endured unpaid wages until the closure.
Godard denied blaming employees for the café’s poor performance but expressed regret over its failure to meet expectations.
