Ted's Café renovation

The Beckman Café has a new name and will reopen soon!

The Beckman Café is going through a complete renovation that will bring the space up to modern standards, and will offer ample opportunities for coming together over a meal or a cup of coffee. When it reopens this summer, it will become Ted's Café.

What to expect

Features in the renovated café will include glass walls, bright and welcoming décor, and a standalone coffee shop.

You can grab a tall seat to do some work or connect with your research group on a comfy banquette. The café is adding a dining room you can reserve for a larger, more formal group. A chef will join the current café management team and will help update the menu.
