This third Bennu will be incomparable than a other dual cafes. However, it will work most like a other two: portion coffee from Texas Coffee Traders, French press, cold-brew, grab-and-go snacks, food, and pastries. Expect equipment from places like Taco Mex, a Green Cart, Celeste’s Best, Tamale Addiction, and Russell’s Bakery, and others.

The new Bennu space is being designed by Jordan Michael Designs.
