Kathleen’s Art Cafe in Plano closes; Dallas branch being overhauled
DALLAS After nearly 20 years, Kathleen's Art Cafe has come to the end of its rope.
The spin-off at Lakeside Market in Plano closed; its last day was Mother's Day. Meanwhile, the original branch on Lovers Lane in Dallas is being overhauled, with a remodel and a name change in the works.
"Someone's working on the sign already," said an employee.
Kathleen's was opened by Kathleen and Robert Ellington in 1988. Its trademarks have been its colossal cakes and desserts, its late-night hours, and the eclectic art by local artists hanging on the walls. The Plano branch opened in 2004.

There was some kind of ownership change a few years ago, after which there was a definite drop in quality.
