As noted in an exclusive article from NYC Newswire<\/a>, after over twenty years of service in Clinton Hill, Connecticut Muffin will be closing its doors on Saturday, November 29, 2025<\/strong>. Situated on the bustling corner of Myrtle Avenue and Clinton Avenue, the caf\u00e9 has been a community landmark since launching in 2003. However, a sharp increase in rent has forced the business to close.<\/p>\n

Rent Hike Prompts Closure<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Staff members confided to NYC Newswire that the landlord intends to raise the rent by an extra $4,000 per month<\/strong>, making the lease unaffordable. The caf\u00e9\u2019s exit will remove a beloved local gathering place, known for its consistent service and welcoming environment.<\/p>\n
