Our Story

Joe’s Table began as a father’s dream for his son, Joe, to experience the joy and self-esteem that comes from having a meaningful job, doing something you love that others value. Like many people with autism, Joe was usually given jobs behind the scenes, yet he really had a talent for engaging people and making them feel welcome.

A coffee shop seemed like the perfect place for Joe. The first Joe’s Table Cafe opened in Burnaby British Columbia in 2013, employing five people with disabilities. We have plans to expand to 10 coffee shops in B.C. within two years.

Great Coffee. Greater Purpose.

Inclusion

We believe in the true and visible inclusion of all people. We ascribe to the UN Convention of rights for people with disabilities document, which contains the right for all people, regardless of race or disability, to be included in their community.

Business Sustainability

As a social enterprise, our impact is achieved through the success of our business. We strive to operate as efficiently and sustainably as possible, thinking about the long-term growth and success of the organization over the day to day operations.

Community

True community is created through the free and open participation of diverse populations. Joe’s Table seeks to create opportunities to foster community building for our employees and customers.
