Cobb County Senior Services has announced a partnership with Café Social House, a restaurant based in Mableton, to offer Southern-inspired comfort food at the Senior Wellness Center in Marietta. The collaboration aims to serve fresh meals to both seniors and the local community.
The café will operate inside the Senior Wellness Center at 1150 Powder Springs Street and will be open for lunch on weekdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The menu will rotate daily and include two meat options, two sides, vegetarian entrees, sandwiches, and salads. Prices for entrees with two sides start at $7. Cobb County employees can receive a 10% discount by presenting their employee badge.
Ioana Bovo-Nicolescu, Director of Cobb County Senior Services, stated: “At Cobb County Senior Services, our goal is to provide the highest quality programs and services that enrich the lives of older adults. This partnership with Café Social House helps us enhance that mission by bringing fresh, restaurant-quality meals into a welcoming space where seniors and the broader community can gather and connect.”
Gloria Smith, owner of Café Social House, said: “When I opened Café Social House seven years ago, my vision was to create a place where the Mableton community could enjoy exceptional food and service without having to travel to Buckhead or Midtown. My team and I are thrilled to expand our reach to the Cobb County Senior Wellness Center and share our passion for fresh, comforting food with even more of our neighbors.”
The grand opening event is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 3 at 11:30 a.m., and attendees are asked to RSVP.
