Send general inquiries to [email protected]. ALL booking requests to [email protected]. The Che Cafe is a community space, DIY venue, vegan café, resource center for radical grassroots activists, and a whole lot more. We put on all ages shows, occasionally serve tasty vegan food and host numerous political and social events

We're not a bar, we strive not to run on bar time. We stick to an early schedule to accommodate the bands, our volunteers, and the all ages crowds that often have curfews. More importantly touring bands appreciate it when they aren't leaving at an absurd hour because the show started late.

hello che café friends! as we come back from our summer hiatus, we want to take the time to remind our community that the che cafe is and has been a sober space for over 20 years. this is an effort to make our space as accessible as possible, provide a community space for all ages, and support our brave space policy. this means that alcohol, drugs, ni****ne products, and all other substances are not allowed within the che cafe. we thank you for respecting our space and helping to make it a place for everyone. if you are interested in our sober space/brave space policy, you can view it below.

Hello wonderful Che Café community! We are expanding our free community resources even further from our fridge and pantry with the introduction of a community closet! Come by during any of our open hours to see the clothes, shoes, bags, and more that we have available for anyone to pick from— we want as much as possible gone from our bins and rack before we close for construction :)

If you’re having a hard time finding any of our resources, ask a volunteer and we can help you out! Our open hours are from 1-5pm every day except Saturday and Monday.
