At Café Momentum, we believe in every person’s potential. That’s why we work with justice-involved youth to give them the skills, confidence and opportunities to create a winning future. By stepping into the kitchen, they’re learning the hustle, finding their strengths, and proving what’s possible when a community comes together. Every meal here helps young people—and our city—win.
Café Momentum Atlanta is opening its doors next month, and we can’t wait to welcome you! Don’t miss your chance to be part of something special—join the waitlist today and be among the first to secure a table.

Café Momentum is an award-winning nonprofit restaurant that aims to transform lives by equipping youth with life skills, education, and employment opportunities to help them achieve their full potential.
Café Momentum’s culinary internship program provides justice-impacted youth with the holistic support they need to truly thrive. With support from the Stand Together community and other local partners, Café Momentum will open its next brick and mortar restaurant in Atlanta less than a mile from the award-winning State Farm Arena in January 2025.
“We’re encouraged to see the Atlanta Hawks, State Farm Arena, and Stand Together coming together to support the potential of Atlanta’s justice-involved youth,” said Stewart Williams, Executive Director for Café Momentum Atlanta.
“Being recognized on a platform of this magnitude allows us to continue having open conversations around how we approach youth justice in Atlanta. We are thrilled to have the backing of these incredible organizations, proving that when young people are believed in, supported, and empowered, they can and will rise to whatever expectations we place on them.”
On Thursday, Nov. 14, the Hawks came to visit Café Momentum in advance of its grand opening. On site were Hawks guard Keaton Wallace, Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Famer and Hawks legend Dominique Wilkins, and TV play-by-play announcer Bob Rathbun who took part in a behind-the-scenes tour. Afterwards, they sat down with executives from Café Momentum as well as a few of their interns for a well-rounded conversation on mentorship and were provided insights on the soon-to-be open downtown Atlanta fine dining restaurant.
