We launched our official Cre8Cafe event at NGIN on Feb 13. Our event was an afternoon of partner…read moreyoga, photography in action and sample superfoods. Olga and Joan were excellent and they were very helpful. The conference room has large open windows and a view of Cambridge. NGIN is not sterile, the colors are bright yet comfortable, it's got great vibes, modern yet with a flare.
The kitchen area was well stocked with healthy snacks. I didn't check out their fridge, but I heard they are to die for! The staff was friendly and facilities were awesome. They have flexible rental that includes day passes, so if you are in town for a short time for a visit, you can use their space instead of forking out a whole month of rent and paperwork, who needs that, really? I've worked in a bunch of shared workspaces and I am super impressed with NGIN. You get a lot and not have to pay a lot.
Every time I was there, I didn't have a hard time looking for street parking, which is a plus because if you go further down in Kendall, parking gets scarce. NGIN is across from Tatte for coffee/dessert and next door is Mulin, yummy Taiwanese food. Not to mention Lord Hobo, one of my fav local beer spot. And you can't go wrong with Emma's pizza, Hungry Mothers, Blue Room, etc.
You are also close to Cambridge's groovy Central Square and eclectic Inman Square with a huge selection of ethnic food, vegetarian restaurants, bars, gyms, etc. I would highly recommend the space for work, fun, play and hangout. Check it out for yourself.
