Karen's Cafe




“Somebody told me that this is the place where everything’s better and everything’s safe.”


Karen Roe and Deb Scott co owned Karen’s Café and the amount of memorable things in this place is unreal. First the café is where Lucas and Haley grew up. The middle aged single mother of Lucas owned this small business. Karen Roe lived quietly in Tree Hill once she was abandoned from her former boyfriend and Lucas’s father Dan Scott. Karen had a very close relationship to her son and his best friend Haley, who worked at the café. This café was the first place Haley performed. Singing in her comfort zone unleashed a start to a new career for her. The café was where Lucas, Karen, and Keith all sat and had their family dinner after Keith and Karen were an official couple. The café brought everyone together in a comforting atmosphere. When Karen left to go to a cooking school abroad Deb took over to help her out. When anything happened in this café it was caring and in good intentions. Besides Lucas, this café was Karen’s most prized possession and she cherished it. After Karen left Tree Hill with her new daughter Brooke moved back from New York City and turned the café into the Tree Hill branch of Clothes Over Bro’s. Then years later when the company was taken from Brooke Haley reopened the original Karen’s Café. Brooke and Haley co-owned the new and improved café.

            Karen gave Jake Jagielski a job at her café while they were in high school. He was raising his daughter and needed a job that understood his new responsibility to her. Karen would let his baby girl lay in the back while he would work. Karen gave everyone a chance to better his or her life and get bye because she understood how hard raising a child in high school was after giving birth to Lucas all alone right out of high school.


            Not only was the café important inside but also on the roof of it. Haley James and Lucas Scott spent a lot of their time on top of the roof. They would have water balloon fights and even a miniature golf course to hangout on during high school. They would get their frustration out up there. Also they would make a yearly prediction each year for what would happened and would check each other’s at the end of the year. They placed the predictions in a tin box and later on Haley showed the box to her son Jamie so he could make his very own prediction.
           
Lucas’ Predictions:
8th grade: Peyton Sawyer will become Peyton Scott.
Sophmore year: Make out with Peyton Sawyer. Or more.
Junior Year: This year, I’ll talk to Peyton Sawyer.
Senior year: Try again with Brooke Davis.

Haley’s Predictions:
I’ll find Bigfoot.
I will live in a big house with a beautiful son and daughter.
Nathan and I will be together again.

Jamie’s Prediction:
9 years old: I’m gonna break Dad’s scoring title.


Karen’s Café Hires Murderers!

Haley lost her chief one day that the café was crazy busy and was extremely overwhelmed. Dan Scott, although was hated, was staying in her house and noticed she needed help. He started cooking for them since he was a chief at his own little store in the middle of nowhere before it burned down. The food was great and everything was starting to move smoothly until a customer started freaking out that a murderer was cooking her food. She made a huge scene and close to everyone left. Haley stuck up for Dan and although he was the bad guy majority of the show, It was great to see her stand up to the rude customer. He did not deserve that harassment and Haley knew that. In Karen’s café everyone is welcome and everyone is treated respectfully.


            Karen’s café was where relationships formed and important things happened. We will never forget Deb’s break down when she was addicted to drugs and had a gun in her purse. She was leaving the café after Karen noticed she was on drugs and she dropped the bag, which made the gun go off shooting the window in the store. Many memorable things happened in this café more good then bad. This café was a home and a comfort zone to many people in Tree Hill and will never be forgotten.
