Fresh Ground Café

About Fresh Ground Café

Fresh Ground Café is a plant-filled oasis in downtown Kitchener, where you can grab freshly roasted coffee and lovingly baked desserts. We are excited to offer this beautiful venue as a space rental, as a catering outpost, as well as a place where people can gain experience in food preparation and volunteer as part of a kitchen team!

Space Booking

Whether it’s a small concert, open mic night, workshop, or a book club, we look forward to hosting you in a cozy atmosphere that fosters connections and creativity. As a rental space, we hope to support local organizations, artists, and community groups looking to gather around their own work of community change. We offer affordable rental rates, with audio-visual equipment and staffing available depending on your needs.
