A “third place” gets its name from the idea that it’s the third most likely place for you to spend your time, with the first being home and second being work. Like the tag-line of Cheers, it “the place where everybody knows your name.” It can be a bar, where the crew is one bartender, or a coffee shop with one barista, or maybe double as a coffee shop by day and a bar by evening. Or it can also be a sandwich shop with one cook and one server, like the restaurant. But whatever kind of food or drink is served, it needs to have indoor seating and wifi so people can come and stay awhile, and maybe work while they’re there. Still, you can do a good third place in less than 400 square feet. This one is 14 feet wide and 24 feet deep; they serve coffee in the morning and rum drinks and light meals in the evening, and were turning a profit before anyone moved into the neighborhood because it became known as such a cool place to people living all around the new neighborhood.
