The Little Café
When you open the door, the smell of fresh coffee draws you in, but you decide on a bottle of fresh-pressed juice. The café features coffee and tea from local, black-owned producers, breakfast muffins, a variety of bread, and overnight oats. Have you got a craving for something more? No problem! You can grab a salad, soup, or a tasty wrap--all prepared in-, house by The 3rd's talented chef. Or, you can order a made-to-order hot breakfast or lunch. The little café retail market features products from 3rd members, so be sure to stop by on your way to the co-work space.
Big Café (Main Space)
The sound of spirited brainstorming and laughter draws you in. Meet a friend to catch up or schedule a quick meeting with a colleague. Enjoy breakfast, grab and salad from the café, or order a full lunch prepared by chef Jamila. You might want to grab a dessert for later from Applecore Bakery, which is member-owned and family-operated.
