Description:
Little Red Coffee is an independent café in Fort Erie that quickly became a welcoming hub for the local LGBTQ2S+ community. Beyond serving coffee, the shop created a safe and inclusive gathering place—hosting events, supporting community initiatives, and building connections across Niagara.

Significance:
As a Trans & Queer owned business, Little Red Coffee represents both visibility and resilience. It has offered a space where people could be themselves openly, where community members met, and where Queer presence in small-town Niagara became part of everyday life.

Events:
– Niagara Queer Archive story telling events
– Arts and culture events
