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.
a few years later, together with firma II, we opened a cantine in brussels as a temporary and flexible project near la bourse. this is where people started to recognize us for our beautiful spaces with a fully white and industrial interior.
after this ended, we decided to continue the succes story of firma II and opened a new, exclusive location in the capital. upon request, for meetings and events and for our firma members, cantine still plays an important part for healthy brainfood in the city centre.
