We want to remind you that we are open today at 9:00am and we’ll be open until 3:00pm and all tips today will go to Saint John SPCA Animal Rescue. So tip generously!

Molly Bloom, an SPCA adoptee.

We decided last year that on Christmas Eve day we’d do two things: 1) donate the day’s tips to a charity and, 2) in order to give our servers a chance for some time off to do some last minute shopping, we’d have volunteer servers in the Deli. So today, from noon till close, we’ll have friends and some of our regular customers doing the serving — so be patient and kind! 🙂

It’s actually kind of fun watching them tackle the task of serving tables and seeing what our servers have to do on a daily basis.

The best part is the tips throughout the day go to Saint John SPCA Animal Rescue, a fabulous group of people doing tremendous work for Saint John’s animals.

Enjoy your day, and pop in to see us if you’re in the Uptown. Just a reminder, if you’re looking for last minutes gifts you can pick up an Urban Deli gift card any time today — we’re open 9:00 till 3:00. Gift cards can be any amount you choose and there is no expiry date on them so they can be used any time.

Lastly … Our holiday hours are outlined here. Have a great Christmas!

Tomorrow, Christmas Eve day (24th), we’re going to do what we did last year — have some friends and regular customers volunteer to be our servers as we try and give our staff some time off. They’ll be on the floor starting at noon until we close at 3:00.

As they give serving a try, we’ll also donate all the tips to a charity.

This year the charity is Saint John SPCA Animal Rescue. They’re great people doing wonderful work and can use help. So we’re hoping we can send something their way through the tips tomorrow, all day, from 9:00am to close (which is 3:00pm — see our holiday hours.)

If you’re in the Uptown tomorrow, drop in for a bite.

And keep in mind, any tip you give goes to Saint John SPCA Animal Rescue.

And as a reminder, today and tomorrow, you can drop in anytime and pick up the yummy gift — an Urban Deli gift card. If you’re doing some last minute shopping, this is quick and easy and makes for a tasty gift. You can choose the amount you want to put on the card and there is no expiration date, so it can be used anytime.

Happy holidays!
