ABOUT
On Call iS STANFORD’S STUDENT-RUN LATE-NIGHT CAFE, SERVING THE BEST VIBES ON CAMPUS. WE ARE A WARM AND WELCOMING COMMUNITY, FOSTERING A MORE CONNECTED STANFORD.
Come say hi at our new home in Old Union.
On Call was born out of ongoing conversations between friends - we lacked a place to gather, to meet new friends, and reconnect with old ones. We wondered, did others feel the same? In April 2023 we hosted Our first pop-up in the Stanford Post office. 200 students came together for a night of coffee, cards, and pastries. We knew we were on to something...
Apr 2023: Mail Room Experiment
Nov 2023: Opening Pop-Up at Haas
With momentum from the mail room experiment and aspirations for a more permanent space, we worked with the Stanford administration to launch a larger pop-up serving over 1,000 students in just two nights.
Jan 2024: Building Our Community
After the 2023 popup, we soon realized on call is about more than a café - it is about community. We grew the on call family to 50 students and started planning for our long-term home in old union. We spent a great deal of time thinking about our values, our menu, and our larger vision.
