Inside the Hollander Chocolate headquarters on the south side — a converted car dealership, which usually means high ceilings, hard surfaces, and a lot of light. Opened October 2025.

The coffee is very good, and there’s enough beyond it — non-coffee drinks, real meals, snacks — that you can sit through a whole morning without running out of reasons to order. That’s the thing that makes a long session work.

Four distinct zones, which is more than anywhere else in town has — a bar up front, a couple of areas that seat a group, and quieter corners besides.

Being off the main downtown strip turns out to be the advantage. There’s a proper lot, so you’re not circling Franklin Street looking for a space before you’ve even started.

Depending on the kind of day

Deep work 3.2/5 — workable
A long stretch of focus. Quiet, somewhere to settle, and power.
Calls & meetings 2.7/5 — only if you have to
A day of talking to people. Needs bandwidth and somewhere to talk.
Quick session 4/5 — reliably good
An hour between things. Sit down, get online, get out.
Company 4.2/5 — reliably good
Working alone is fine; working near people is better. You want a room with something going on.
