The caf\u00e9 is located in the heart of De Ceuvel and is the main public attraction. Originally intended as the canteen of the creative hub, it has grown into one of the city\u2019s leading hospitality venues and is internationally known as a source of inspiration for sustainable hospitality.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

The building was designed by architect Wouter Valkenier. The caf\u00e9 itself was founded by Toon Maassen and Esmee Jiskoot. In 2020, it was taken over by Gideon Loerakker, Ren\u00e9 de Boer, Huib Koel, and Esther Weller. The caf\u00e9 works closely with the association and is responsible for much of the external communication, cultural programming, and public-facing activities.<\/p>\n\n
