Join the Waiting ListMore About the Tattler
The Monroe Street Tattler is an occasional, unofficial neighborhood paper about local food, neighborhood oddities, and the small details that make a place feel like itself.
The aim is simple: celebrate local places, notice small things, and help build the kind of neighborhood spirit that comes from shared curiosity, good humor, and paying attention to what's right in front of us.
If you enjoyed the Tattler and want to say thanks, you can chip in once or become a recurring supporter . Your support helps cover printing, trophies, and whatever unnecessary investigation comes next.
Reading and sharing the paper helps too. That's the whole point.
The Tattler is always accepting leads, questions, tips, curiosities, and small matters that may deserve more attention than they strictly require.
Know someone in the neighborhood worth interviewing? Have a local pro tip others should know? Notice a tiny mystery, excellent sandwich, suspiciously beloved menu item, useful shortcut, unusual sign, strong opinion, or oddly perfect overheard remark?

Send whatever seems worth sharing. The Tattler will take it from there.
