Teens are at the heart of this cafe
The Ironworks Cafe is part of a teen employment program at the Goodman Community Center. When you eat at the cafe, you're helping teens learn basic job skills, food and customer service skills, plus they're seeing the ins and outs of managing a business. There are always comment cards near the cash register >> the teens depend on your feedback to help them learn what they are doing right and how they could make your experience better, so if you have time, please fill one out!
The Ironworks Cafe has a partnership with East High School's alternative educational program Vocationally Integrated Pathways (VIP). Students from VIP and other area students, under the guidance of restaurant professionals, are responsible for the entire operations of the business.
