4th of July BBQ @ the Recovery Cafe!

Come join us as we celebrate the 248th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence! This holiday can be a difficult time for many. From maintaining sobriety to the startle effect of fireworks on individuals dealing with PTSD, the 4th of July is not always a day of jubilation. However, we have a safe place for you! All are welcome at the Recovery Cafe!

Come down and enjoy a wonderful meal with us in a safe, sober, and welcoming environment. Check out our schedule of upcoming classes, play games with a new friend, learn more about what we do, and maybe even decide to become a cafe member! This restorative community has something for everyone, and we’d love for you to be a part of it.

Mosaic City Breakfast

In a few short months, our logo for Recovery Cafe West Sacramento has come to symbolize so much for us. That steaming, stained-glass cup is the perfect representation of diverse, broken lives coming together to form a vessel of warmth and wholeness for all.

That vision is at the heart of Recovery Cafe West Sac. And it’s at the heart of our inaugural Mosaic City Breakfast, a benefit for the cafe that we’ll be hosting this March 30 at the Boathouse at. Bridgeway Lakes. We hope you’ll consider joining us for a special time and a special vision for West Sacramento.
