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 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.

Join the Che Cafe’s Education Subcollective on Thursday, May 14th at 7 pm for a free screening of the award-winning documentary, American Dream. For this movie, the filmmaker and her team completely immersed themselves in the lives of striking meatpacking workers fighting for better pay and working conditions. Their walkout lasted almost a year, in defiance not only of their company but also the timid United Food and Commercial Workers International Union. Happening just after May Day, this screening will be a great way to commemorate the history of the American labor movement and reflect on its past, current, and future directions. The screening will be followed by a discussion of the movie, and free vegan snacks and drinks will be provided. Hope to see you there!
