cantine was founded by anne in 2016. after launching firma, a coworking space, she still missed a place to welcome people and make the step to creativity and imagination a bit smoother. after looking for a bridge that was able to bring people together, whilst complementing the strong vision of firma, cantine was born. inspired by the industrial building where simplicity and non ordinary meet, perfectly aligned with fine food and good coffees.
and so our headquarters are located in the firma building in vilvoorde, and we recently opened a second location in brussels where we prepare daily brainfood and deliver breakfast and lunch in the city centre. the location is quite unique, with lots of light and a great view of la bourse.
people started to recognize us for our beautiful big spaces with a fully white and industrial interior. to get even closer to you, we transformed an old shoemakers shop to a take away point for cantine brussels at the ground floor on the anspach. coffee, lunch and sweets to go were never easier!
so a bit faster than planned, we’re now serving coffee in 3 cantines - each with it’s own specific character but all with the same mission. cantine I, II and III.
