Welcome!

The Café Project is a non-profit, volunteer-run café, bookswapping library, art gallery, discussion and performance space in the heart of Cambridge on 22 Jesus Lane. We are open in the evenings, but sometimes also host events during the day. Our café is cosy, eclectic, improvised, and open to everyone, to students and non-students. Come and treat yourself with some scrumptious and ethical goodies! (Check the opening times.) Or better still, volunteer!

Volunteers needed!!

The Café Project is completely volunteer-run -- and we always need more volunteers: to serve in the café, to bake cakes, to decorate the space, and to manage and plan various aspects of running the café. Volunteering is fun -- come and join us! If you'd like to be part of the project (or if you already are), please sign up and join our mailing list!

cafeproject.org launch!

This is the launch of the Café Project website at cafeproject.org! Hopefully, this site will assist the running of the project in the times to come.

All this would not have been possible without the help of my friends Timwi and Roman, who are hosting our website on their server free of charge. Thanks so much! Timwi has also spent countless hours setting up the underlying software and writing lots of excellent, customised code for the Café Project. If you like the dynamic features of the website (in particular the volunteer time-slot/role system, or the café mailing list subscription system), please send him an email: <cafeproject[AT]timwi.de>.
