Our Cafe provides a year-round gathering place for residents and visitors to meet and gather round good healthful food and coffee whether in our indoor & outdoor spaces or on the go. Upstairs at The Culinary Center you’ll find cooking classes and demonstrations and facilities for private dining and community events. It’s an open, relaxed, flexible space that can function as a demonstration kitchen or as additional space for cafe seating. The cooktop in the demonstration kitchen can be covered and the room used for other meetings, classes and pop-up market and special events. 

  The second floor contains an interactive kitchen with three workstations (two hot and one cold), and a private dining room that participants can use to enjoy the meal they have helped prepare. Modeled after the Action Kitchen at the Seaport Hotel in Boston and similar venues elsewhere, the space can be used for traditional cooking classes and for groups who want to have collaborative cooking experiences or competitive cook-offs. The dining room, which seats up to 16 people, can be independently rented for private dinners and can double as a general purpose classroom and meeting space.
