Trivia Night + Back To School + Vinyl Night + Rising Thistle

TAKE SOME TIME FOR YOU, BOO
We know things are crazy with school starting, so here's a reminder that things go smoother if you can carve out even 10 minutes for yourself to recharge. 

We are here as a little oasis amongst the chaos of back-to-school season. And with all of our great snacks, drinks, and new items, like our lunch box notes, you can still mark items off your list while having a coffee and taking a bit of time for you. There's a reason airlines tell you to put your own oxygen mask on first: you can't help anyone else if you're depleted.

We also have some fun things happening around Rebus this weekend: Trivia Night on Thursday, Vinyl Night on Friday, and Rising Thistle Bakery on Saturday. 

It's going to be a good week!



Check out our calendar here for more events!
TRIVIA NIGHT
Do you feel like you have all of these factoids stored away in your brain, and you don't exactly know what to do with all of that information?

Have we got a night for you! Join us for Trivia Night, where you can use all the weird and seemingly useless info you have stored in your head and win some prizes, like gift certificates and free coffee!

Comedian Phil Krew will be keeping you entertained while asking questions that cover the spectrum of history, pop culture, music, and more!

So come on by with that big, beautiful brain and play!


Thursday, 8/21, 6-8pm

HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF ON OUR WEBSITE
We are still reeling from the events that impacted our neighbors in the mountains, and we’re taking action by gathering GoFundMe campaigns and featuring them on our relief page. Many of the businesses we’ve reached out to that are still open have asked us to showcase their products, as they’re eager to attract autumn visitors. We’re also in the process of securing more of their offerings, so remember to think of Rebus when you begin your holiday shopping.

For more information on how you can help Western NC directly, go to our Hurricane Helene Relief page here.
