Sisters Kerri Horgan and Coleen Dahlem opened the Rail Trail Cafe and Mercantile in October 2023 with the intention of providing the community with an experience that goes beyond a quick meal.  The menu has something for everyone with high-quality ingredients at a reasonable and affordable price.  Their motto, “Don’t stop until you get there…” defines the café’s drive to continuously grow and develop new programs and options for the community for which they serve.
