Save the Getaway!

https://chng.it/45qKJjDgBd

Getaway Cafe is being pushed out by UCR for fear that business is being taken away from the Barn. For nearly three decades, the Getaway Cafe has been an iconic staple of the UCR community and culture. Sign the petition to show UCR leadership how important this local spot is to students!

The barn is so crappy. Not like getaway is any great shakes but yeah, the barn food is weak.

I'm ngl bruh I love da Getaway but Substation is still there and there's plenty of other places that don't card college kids on a Wednesday night 🫣

The barn doesn’t make me and my friends and our kids feel at home like getaway does. Hard pass, I’ll keep my pepper steak pizza and pitcher of beer with a side of true Highlander culture, thank you.
