Atomic Cat’s food offerings currently include bagels, muffins and pastries, along with grab-and-go snacks and other prepared items.
Bridges said she also plans to host creative workshops, book clubs, and other laid-back community events at the cafe.
The coffee shop’s name is inspired by the elongated, geometric cats that were a popular motif in mid-century modern decor, helping connect the new cafe to Bridges’ other businesses.
Several decorative pieces throughout Atomic Cat are available for purchase, along with branded merchandise repurposed from secondhand clothing.
Despite now operating three businesses within the plaza, Bridges said she still has additional plans for the property.
“It is kind of cool to be able to slowly get things going in this area, and it’s really worked out for us so far,” she added.
Atomic Cat Cafe will be open from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, and closed Mondays.
