To add to Tatt's info, also check with VFW's, American Legions, church groups or other service groups and clubs. There's a good possibility the place has been approved for either on or offsite culinary work.
Another route is to contact the local county health inspector's/environmental health service office. They may know of something.
Ciao,

To add to the others info, might check with the purveyor reps. Sysco, etc., those sales people usually know where the ideal commercial kitchens are located.

Chanmarie,
I also live in the Fairfield area and am looking to rent a commercial kitchen/bakery. I've exhausted almost every avenue... Have you had any luck? I'm in a near panic to get 90+ mini cakes baked and packaged and cannot do it from home. I've even tried looking to rent a 12Q Hobart and rolling racks but can't find a rental co. who has the equipment.  |

my kitchen is in a 100 year old church, it had to be brought up to specs for Health inspections....churches are not under health inspection jurisdiction, but as I'm leasing the kitchen and it's my business it had to be inspected.
Catholic Schools are closing, their cafeterias are available.
Health inspectors are good resources as are newspaper food writers.... |

On the San Francisco peninsula, and looking for some kitchen space to rent for an established cake business. My current kitchen arrangement is no longer working. If no one has leads on a kitchen to rent on the peninsula, is anyone interested in starting a small kitchen with me? I have found a space with all hook ups (the expensive part), but it needs the equipment. If interested in splitting the cost of some used equipment and $1500 month rent ($750 each), please let me know!
Thanks so much- | | |
