Known forhampdencafebakeryco-op
A Hampden institution since 1997 and now a worker-owned co-op after the community rallied to reopen it in 2023, serving locally roasted coffee (Ceremony, Zeke's) and famous from-scratch baked goods. Come for a muffin or scone and a big mug of coffee in a genuinely neighborhood-y room. Caveat: it's a comfortable community café, not a precision third-wave bar, so the coffee is good rather than showstopping.
