“What is this place?” has to be the #1 question asked by people coming through our door (followed by “Do you have a menu?” or “What do I need to join?” and “Do you have chicken salad?”) So what IS The Hive? We are a health department-inspected shared commercial kitchen space available to rent 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We currently have 2,400 square feet of workspace with stations for cooking, baking, food prep, dish washing, as well as cold and dry storage space available to our rental customers. Interested in renting space at The Hive Kitchen? Check out our Getting Started page.

In The Storefront

The Hive Storefront is open Tuesday 12 – 6pm, Wednesday thru Friday 12 – 9pm, Saturday 8am – 12pm and 4 – 9pm. Items stocked daily, available while they last.
