Community Meeting Rooms

The Community Rooms are the heart and soul of Black Bear Crossings. Offering free space for small neighborhood groups was a founding principle of the original coffee shop on Como Avenue, and continues to this day. In exchange for the rooms, Black Bear Crossings only asks two things: that you treat our space as your own, and that you don’t bring in your own food and beverages, instead taking advantage of our freshly brewed coffee and homemade food in the café. There is a journal in each room, creating a living history, and each person contributes to the positive energy of the space. We requre a small fee if you are making a profit from using the rooms. These rooms are perfect for book clubs, small board meetings, office retreats, political meetings, workshops and so much more.
