Art isn’t just on the walls — it’s in your cup, too. Our in-house café brings the same energy and creativity as the gallery, serving Passport specialty coffee crafted with care and character. We partner with local roasters to offer rich, flavorful blends and single-origin options that celebrate the craft of coffee-making. Whether you're here to sip slowly while exploring the space or just stopping in for a quick caffeine fix, our coffee bar is designed to fuel inspiration and spark connection.

From velvety flat whites to bold espressos and seasonal specials, every cup is made to elevate your experience. Great art deserves great coffee — and we’re here to serve both.
