What is a third place?
A third place is a location other than home (1st place) or work (2nd place), where people go to spend time and engage with their community.
Often these places have food and drinks (like us!), offer opportunities for members to connect (also, like us!), and create space for folks to simply hang out (again, like us!)
Third places combat our loneliness epidemic and build a culture of support and welcoming in the communities they serve.
