UPDATE: Boston Brewin Coffee Company, a local organic coffee company, will begin selling coffee, tea, and small treats on the third floor mezzanine of City Hall.

Back in November the Mayor’s Office of New Urban Mechanics selected a local coffee vendor to set up shop in the City Hall mezzanine to run a coffee cart for Boston to enjoy. On Monday, January 5, Mayor Marty Walsh will welcome this vendor, who will be slinging organic java, for the first time.

The coffee cart is the brainchild of the New Urban Mechanics who have been undertaking a number of initiatives to make City Hall, a notoriously gray and dismal public building, more inviting. People are already beginning to take lunch and meetings in the space, and the cart will help activate the mezzanine even further.

“There’s not a very good service being provided down there to activate the space and it’s such a great space between the lobby of the third floor and the fourth floor,” Susan Nguyen, a project leader and one-year fellow with the mechanics, told BostInno.

Mayor Walsh will welcome the vendor at high noon.

The Inspectional Services Department, Property & Construction Management Department and the Small & Local Business Enterprise Office helped facilitate and streamline the permitting process to get a coffee cart in City Hall. A local vendor was specifically sought to help bolster the relationship between the City of Boston and small businesses.

“We’re making the city, and making this actual building, more accessible to the public and in that way making governance more accessible to the public,” added Nguyen.
