Chilliwack Airport Cafe – Flying Into Trouble

Chilliwack – The Chilliwack Airport Coffee Shop is probably more well noted than the annual Flight Fest. It is well known that pilots have flown into and out of the airport, just to get a slice of the world famous pie.

That could all hit the ground if a controversy over a patio is not resolved by the end of the year.

There is a dispute between the shop owners and the Airport authority over patio repairs to rehabilitate  the outdoor area that the shop has used for 36+ years.

But it appears that what is coming out in the wash, is that this rehabilitation of the patio would be permanent and the coffee shop would no longer have access to the patio, which has always been a huge tourist draw.

And a big financial shot in the arm to the bottom line.

Shop co-owner Judi Good said their income from patio sales has been considerable and they were asked by the airport to pay for the removal of trees that were considered “unsafe”.

She would like to see fans of the shop to call Chilliwack City Hall and other politicians and civic leaders to help them out.

An On Line petition to help save the coffee shop can be found here.

There is still plenty of time before the end of the year for some agreement to come to fruition.
