Who's Who: The Café Crew

As you probably know, the Café at SpaE has undergone some major changes over the past couple of months, and we're so excited about everything that's been going on.

Not only are our menu items delicious and nutritious, but our team is talented and passionate about what they do.

Speaking of the team, we wanted to take a minute to introduce you to David & Shelby, our dynamic duo that will be creating your made-to-order masterpieces! Both team members have been with SpaE for the long-haul and are committed to making every aspect of your visit "SPAtacular"!
