Rates & Services

Rental Services

We offer a variety of rates and services for your business. We offer short-term leased kitchen space rentals (six months to one year lease terms), hourly options and a hybrid of both.

Hourly Kitchen Rental

Just getting going or want to keep your business hours in control? Hourly is a great option.

Hourly rental is offered to all members of the North Shore Culinary Center. Hourly rental is a one time annual $1500 membership fee; hourly usage fees commence as you need the kitchen.

We offer you in-house consultation and provide you with commercial kitchen space as you need it and depending on your needs.

You pay as you go—no need to pay in advance.

Hourly hybrid model exists for those that need more longer term storage for their business. Shelving rental for hybrids starts at $100/month.

Leased Rental Spaces

We offer custom-tailored and standalone sections in the kitchen for you and your business to operate out of.

After signing a six month or one year lease, you will receive a key to the facility and can use it as your home base of business operations 24/7. Rates start at $1500 and up based upon the needs of your business. First, last and security deposit required.

Leased rental spaces are ideal for startups that have identified revenue streams, food trucks, ghost restaurants and other small business startups.
