About The Hangout

Belonging is at the core of strong, connected communities. In a world where isolation and loneliness are increasing, spaces like The Hangout at Grant’s Café play an important role in building relationships and creating a sense of togetherness.

Having a community hangout space where everyone is welcome can make all the difference—helping people feel seen, valued, and part of something bigger.

No purchase necessary, but we have coffee, tea, other drinks, and snacks to buy. The space is inviting and comfortable and a place where everyone is welcome!

Upcoming Events

We plan fun and inclusive events that are open to anyone in the community! Join us for our next event!
