Whisk Bakery Expands with New Cafe at Library of Virginia

Whisk is set to open a new cafe at the Library of Virginia in January, expanding its reach in Richmond. Owner Billy Bryan aims to serve a diverse customer base, including library visitors and government workers. This move comes after the closure of Can Can Cafe, which previously occupied the space. Whisk plans to offer a variety of food and beverages, creating a community hub within the library.

• Whisk will take over the cafe space in the Library of Virginia, previously occupied by Can Can Cafe.

• The new location will serve coffee, baked goods, smoothies, and more, catering to library visitors and nearby government employees.

• The cafe will have seating for 50 people and aims to support the library’s mission as a community space.

• Whisk has a history of working with educational and nonprofit groups, and plans to offer culinary classes at the new location.

This expansion reflects a growing trend of integrating food services into public spaces, enhancing community engagement. By providing quality food and drink options, Whisk aims to attract a steady flow of visitors, contributing to the library's role as a cultural hub in Richmond. The partnership also showcases the importance of local businesses in fostering community connections.
