Pay-It-Forward at the Bridge Community Cafe

Bridge Community Cafe is a neighborhood-driven coffee shop. This cafe offers an inviting atmosphere and a safe space, accompanied by delicious vegan food options and home-brewed tea. 

Opening during the height of the pandemic, Bridge Community Cafe was created to help support small businesses. However, cafe owner Sierra Lambert says the cafe became a community space that offered snacks and resources such as workshops while helping organize events. 

“It’s meant to be a community space,” said Lambert. “I want to organize and help people organize events, workshops, and skill sharing, but I also think you can’t do that without any income. Coffee is a great way to bring money and bring people together from different places. Everyone drinks coffee, we also have tea, we have lemonade, we have cookies, and we have vegan food. We’re trying to make it so everybody wants to be here and feel comfortable. That is the main goal and I think it’s worked out well.”

Within the cafe, artists are allowed to sell or donate their art and jewelry.
