Borealis. I go there several times a week just to write and drink coffee.

Yeah that definitely makes sense. I'm wishing for there to be an option that's less fancy and set up than an actual restaurant, but may not be possible. Thanks for the insight!

Tried them, they're the ones that gave me the 4k estimate. Thank you!

Thanks. An ancient and now deceased family member used to tell stories of down city in a row boat.
Sea wall locks? Storm gates? Flood gates? Rumored to be rusted at one time.

The bike shop? Or do you mean Bolt Coffee?

White Electric is good! It’s a worker-owned cooperative too, so pretty rad.

Agreed! I came here to say Easy Entertaining. They are fabulous

Coffee Exchange, 2nd floor. Bolt is nice too but louder.

Is this including food? Admittedly, brunch should be cheaper than other meals, but 4k sounds about on par for a private space and food for 50 (especially if there's any kind of booze). You may get quoted higher as a holiday off will probably be a profitable time for a restaurant that is one of the only ones open that day (Seven Stars had a line out the door on MLK day, for example).
Just to put it into context. Feeding 50 people is expensive and gratuity and stuff will add up quickly.

I second this! They did my micro wedding and wedding catering and I can't say enough good things about them.

Wow, awesome, did not know this. I knew of Nitro Bar (since they were a cart downtown 5-6 years ago) didn’t put two and two together that they’re at Dash now.
