As the coworking industry grows, many restaurants, event spaces, and incubators are finding ways to offer workspaces or convert their space to accommodate the changing needs of freelancers and remote companies. We have seen social clubs, specialty maker spaces, and restaurants that are only open for dinner evolving their operations as a part of the changing world of hybrid work.
At Deskpass, we traditionally partner with fully serviced coworking spaces. More recently, we have added some unique options for booking day passes, meeting rooms, or offices. Here is a roundup of some our favorite alternatives to coworking spaces that are currently active on Deskpass.
Brennan’s Work & Leisure
The founders of Brennan’s Work & Leisure envisioned a place where colleagues and friends could blend the lines of work and leisure. From a conference room with visual displays to a bocce ball court, Work & Leisure offers comfortable, modern gathering spaces and private offices with all the amenities for work and play.
With more than 6,000 square feet, Work & Leisure features an eclectic public cafe, grab and go goods, a dynamic event venue and workspace.
Their space can accommodate anywhere from 20 to 250 guests for private events. One of the unique features at Brennan’s Work & Leisure is 18-foot ceilings in the front, where the café is located, and 14-foot ceilings in the back.
Book a day pass at Brennan’s Work & Leisure and you will have an elevated experience, a local cup of coffee, and a delicious happy hour.
