The cafe has become a popular venue in the town since it opened five years ago.
The dog-friendly site offers customers up coffee, cakes, toasties, sandwiches and bagels, as well as vegan and gluten free options.
Staff said the cafe will remain open until late May or early June.
And they thanked their loyal customers over the years for their support.
