The ‘Plus’ Counts

Older adults are not all the same.
The Café Plus concept works because it offers a unique blend and packaging of menu, program, and ambience developed to meet the individual needs of your customers and your community.

Here are some of the things Café Plus has proven it can do…

  • Attract the 50+ market.
  • Redefine senior living – not as a time for giving things up, but as an opportunity for quality living, interesting choices, and personal growth.
  • Establish collaborative partnerships in building community support and relationships.
In the past year, Mather’s–More Than a Café (our Café Plus locations) have:
  • — Attracted 10,000 adults
  • — Enrolled adults in over 4,000 classes
  • — Sold over 50,000 meals

Here’s what some Café Plus regulars have to say…

“Kids have their hangouts. So why shouldn’t we?”

— Marion Joyce Lindgren, 67

“I like to stop in just to see who’s there…”

— Mercy Prindes, 69

“I checked it out with my girlfriends and we liked the youngish atmosphere. When you walk in, everybody says hi. They may not remember your name, but they remember your face.”

— Corrine Compton, 68
