We created a welcoming third space where we can get out of our homes to work, study, meet and connect - right here in Montclair, NJ.

A space that prioritized community as much as coworking. A space where we can work and play, relax and recharge. A space where we’d actually want to spend the day. A space that’s accessible and inclusive to all.

Our space is inside Lackawanna Plaza, a historic former train station in Montclair, NJ. The plaza is full of open spaces, bright light and good energy, with high walkability to many shops & restaurants downtown.

Our space is a 3-minute drive or 10-minute walk to the NJ Transit station at Bay Street.

We have burgers, donuts, the Montclair Flea, food trucks, and other Lackawanna Station shops right outside our door.

Inside Lackawanna Station, on the corner of Bloomfield Ave and Grove Street. We’ll be the first door on the right when you walk in from the main entrance. Please check in with our Community Associate at the front desk.

RecRoom is a great place to work when you want a professional workspace close to home. It offers a comfortable working area, private phone booths for calls, and several food options nearby. The overall environment is productive, convenient, and well suited for remote workers. They also have web and mobile apps that make booking and managing the workspace easy.

RecRoom is within walking distance of Bay St Station on the NJ Transit, with plenty of parking options. It made for a perfect meeting spot for our NJ and NYC colleagues. Would definitely recommend.

RecRoom is a gem and Montclair is lucky we have such a space. We held an event there last week and the entire process from checking availability to hosting the event was seamless. Michelle is the perfect host. She responded promptly, was flexible with major decisions and helped make warm introductions to vendors we needed for the event. On the day of she and Luke made sure our event went off without a hitch, jumping on technical issues and making sure all our speakers were up and running with WiFi and casting to the TV. Given that these were lightning talks and we had 9 speakers one after the other every ten mins, this was no small feat. Thank you Michelle and RecRoom team!

We have hosted two events in this space. The vibe is immaculate. The staff is super accommodating, and the vibe puts our guests at ease. For the first event, we reserved a room to host interviews. Second, we rented the entire space for 5 hours. The rate was great, and they had everything we needed. Our guests were so impressed by the space. Personally, will be using it for regular co-working space during the summer while the kids are home.

RecRoom is a wonderful, warm, and super accommodating co-working and meeting space, with great staff. It's my team's go-to meeting spot when we need one. Highly recommended!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Open desks may be the ideal choice if you thrive in a collaborative environment and value the opportunity to connect with fellow coworkers. Dedicated desks, on the other hand, provide a designated space with shared community amenities, catering to those who seek a balance between privacy and interaction.

    For ultimate focus and private interactions, private offices are best for solo individuals and teams that seek uninterrupted productivity.

    Selecting the most suitable workspace for you typically hinges on your work style and preferences, but it can also be determined by the type of work that you do, its duration, and whether you work alone or in a team.

  • Most coworking space amenities are open to all members, regardless of the membership plan. Meeting rooms require prior reservation, and private offices are exclusively available to those with subscription packages. However, the lounge, kitchen, and breakout spaces are open to everyone.

  • Absolutely. Flexibility is one of the best parts of coworking.
