Dyck Farm Café ~ About

📖 The Story

It started in February of 2023 — quietly, without ceremony. A plot of land on Zindra, a building going up, a sign over the door. Something to do. Somewhere to belong. The community that called it into being has since drifted and dissolved, the way communities do, like morning fog over a field. But the café is still here. Still lit. Still warm.

A relic of a different time — still standing, still warm, still pouring drinks.

The land remembers what it used to be. Old farmland, slowly softened into something suburban — a park where the fields once were, a street where dirt tracks ran, and right at the edge of it all, a café that took root and stayed. You can feel it in the name if you let yourself. The Dyck Farm didn't disappear. It just learned to make coffee.

These days the place belongs to the people who keep coming back. A loose, easy constellation of regulars — some here since the beginning, some who wandered in one afternoon and never quite found a reason to leave. Nobody comes to Dyck Farm Café for the occasion. They come because it's there, because it's quiet, because sometimes a place just fits the shape of you.

🌿 The Place

Find us on Zindra, in the region of Kuradov — at the edge of a park, just where the old farmland gives way to something greener. It's a small-town kind of café in the truest sense: less destination, more somewhere you end up, and find yourself glad you did.

There are seats inside, and an open stretch outside that breathes easy even when it fills up. The park beyond is open to anyone who wanders past — no cover charge, no questions. At the counter there's a ticket system that keeps things moving. Beyond that, the day is yours to spend however slowly you like.

A note on the neighbourhood: Dyck Farm Café was here before the Joy! Flophouse opened down the street — we watched the neighbourhood grow up around us. New faces come and go, RPers drift through, and we're glad for every one of them. This block is richer for the company. Come as you are.

🧋 The People

Every place like this has its people — the ones who give it its character, its warmth, its reason for being. Dyck Farm Café is no different.

The one who keeps the place running. Built it, maintains it, and is usually around to chat.

Tuna

the real boss

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Tuna runs this place. Mint Tea just does the paperwork.

And then there are the regulars — no titles, no introductions needed. They've made this their corner of the grid, the place they come back to when the rest of Second Life gets too loud. You'll know them when you meet them. They'll make room.

✦ What We Are

Dyck Farm Café isn't chasing anything. No theme nights, no content calendar, no carefully curated aesthetic. It's a place on the internet built the old way — by hand, with care, because someone wanted it to exist and went ahead and made it. You can sit down, order something warm, and not have to perform being anywhere. Just be here.

The regulars will nod. The conversation will find you eventually. The coffee will be exactly what you needed.

The door's always open. Come find us.
