About The Hood

When we founded our beautifully crafted commercial kitchen space in Orange County, California, we set out to build a reliable, dependable kitchen space for food entrepreneurs.

So we did. We provide a clean, health department certified space for chefs, restaurants, bakers, food artisans, consultants and culinary teachers to flourish—any time, any day, and at any stage in their business.

We have other big goals, too. We want to support and help grow the local culinary scene, and build a community where like-minded food entrepreneurs can network, promote, and develop strong food businesses.

With over 5,400 square feet and six kitchens fully equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, specialized baking and studio space, and larders filled with fresh, seasonal, and organic ingredients from local Orange County suppliers, we're attracting people and businesses that not only create great products, but appreciate and love the efficiency, professional agility and inspiring and entrepreneurial community at The Hood.

Oh, and one more thing—we’re having a lot of fun.

We’re so excited to be part of the growing group of Orange County food entrepreneurs and chefs finding success at The Hood Kitchen Space, and it shows every day with our clients’ results, successes and growth, and the big smiles you see when you walk in our doors.

So if you’re looking for a low-risk alternative for food preparation, production and R&D at a business incubator committed to maintaining sustainable food practices, come see us. We think you'll feel right at home at The Hood.
