Ché Café, Community venue at University of California San Diego, US.

The Ché Café operates as a worker cooperative social center and music venue within the University of California San Diego campus in La Jolla.

Students established the Ché Café in 1980, naming it after Argentine revolutionary Che Guevara while also creating the backronym 'Cheap Healthy Eats'.

The venue gained recognition in hardcore, punk, post-punk, and indie rock scenes during the 1990s, hosting numerous performances and art exhibitions.

The venue maintains a capacity of 170 people, accepts cash payments between $5-15 for shows, and holds collective meetings every Monday at 7 PM.

Recent renovations in 2017 resolved an 18-year dispute between the University administration and the venue, securing its continued operation through a new lease agreement.
