Chalkboards Coffee & Cafe Opens in Bridge City

Chalkboards Coffee & Cafe has opened in Bridge City at 1055 Texas Ave. in the location formerly called Elements Cafe and Bakery. Their operating hours are Monday-Friday from 7 am-5 pm and Saturdays from 8 am-2 pm. They are closed on Sundays.

They are open for dine-in, carry-out, or drive-through. Chalkboards Coffee & Cafe has the same owner, location, phone number, and staff as Elements Cafe and Bakery with a great new menu and staff additions.  The biggest change in the reopening is that they are no longer a full bakery. However, they will continue to offer some desserts and a holiday menu but will no longer be taking any custom orders. Their menu is served all day every day and there are no longer rotating specials.

In their “pantry” section, they’ll offer fresh, ready, refrigerated soups by the quart, chicken salad, and some of their most popular salad dressings like raspberry vinaigrette, lemon poppyseed, and cilantro lime, as well as some of their seasoning, blends like everything seasoning, blackening seasoning, jerk seasoning, chili powder in pint jars.

To see their menu, visit their Facebook page or call them at 409-792-0870.
