Welcome
Caterers, Food Trucks, Market Vendors, Executive and Personal Chefs
- Are you in need of a commercial kitchen facility?
- Expanding and outgrown your current space?
- Do you sell seasonally at Farmer's markets and don't need a space year-round?
- Have a new idea and not ready to purchase or rent your own kitchen or restaurant yet?
Haddon Kitchen Incubator provides turnkey kitchen facilities to food service businesses who do not manage their own dedicated food preparation space. But that is just the beginning. We are a full-service food industry incubator, dedicated to help you grow your business.
Kitchen Facilities
Our facilities consist of three interconnected work rooms and an event room. Each area is available for your simultaneous use with any reservation. Haddon Kitchen Incubator is available for use 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to members.
-
Main Kitchen
Spacious restaurant-style production area with a full hot line, convection ovens, microwave, slicers, fixed and mobile work tables, prep sink and refrigeration.
-
Rear Kitchen
Flexible use area with mixers and both stainless steel and wood top tables. Ideal as a bread and pastry preparation area.

Prep Area
Separate work area with stainless steel work tables with integral overshelves, best for basic preparation or assembly needs. Located in the side storeroom just steps away from the walk-in refrigeration, freezers, and standing mixer.
Available Services
Haddon Kitchen Incubator is more than just a commissary kitchen. In addition to on-demand use of our facilities, we offer many services to help you get your food business off the ground or meet new demand as you grow. We have catering equipment available for rent on a daily (per-event) basis. We offer an event room onsite for your demonstrations and classes, and even client catering.
We offer many other benefits to our members. We hold regular member meetings to help you network with other Incubator members. We will attempt to use our group purchasing power to obtain discounts on popular services. We engage in group purchasing which allows small businesses access to large suppliers who often have minimum order sizes and set delivery dates. We also plan seasonal public events and invite Incubator members to showcase their products.
We can also provide business services, including phone and mail service, invoicing system, one-pager websites, and more.
In addition, we offer consulting services to new and growing businesses. Need someone to look over a contract? Are you sure you have the right insurance? Are you spending way too much for back office solutions? We are industry veterans who have struggled with the same issues and have developed a proven path to success.

Members may also purchase additional convenience services to complement their kitchen use membership.
