Thanks to all who’ve been emailing and messaging us updates about the old Uprising Muffin space.
“Broccoli Bar is a place to gather.
A place to share ideas. To inspire change.
For those interested in not just change, but in crafting that change.
A place to eat. A place to drink. A place to think.
Broccoli Bar is no one thing. It’s not for any one people. Not for the like minded or the short sighted. It’s not a defined space, because you haven’t defined it yet.
Broccoli Bar is a Broccoli City and &pizza joint.”
From Broccoli Bar:
“Opening to the public 10/26, Broccoli Bar is a joint &pizza/Broccoli City collaborative bar venue in Shaw that will serve as a gathering place to bring people together over ideas, cocktails, good music and pizza.
