Let’s be honest, most workspaces aren’t exactly inspiring. But The Root, Fayetteville’s newest coworking space, is flipping the script entirely. Designed with intention, warmth, and community at its core, The Root isn’t just a place to plug in your laptop but also a place to enjoy your workday. With flexible memberships, thoughtful amenities, and an energy that feels like your favorite coffee shop, it’s no surprise that creatives, entrepreneurs, and remote teams are already calling it their work home.
Founded by Ben Von Drehle, The Root was born from a simple idea: your office shouldn’t suck. “I’ve worked in a lot of spaces that looked cool but felt cold or were comfortable but lacked functionality,” says Ben. “We wanted to build a place that was warm, intentional, and genuinely enjoyable to be in.” From the moment you walk through the doors, you can feel the difference. The space is airy, bright, and inviting, designed to inspire focus and foster connection.
What sets The Root apart goes beyond its beautifully designed interiors. “We approach coworking through the lens of hospitality,” Ben explains. “That means anticipating needs before they’re asked for, creating a space that feels comfortable but elevated, and making sure every interaction is personal.”
Fostering connection beyond the desk, The Root hosts regular events such as happy hours, founder talks, and local maker pop-ups designed to spark genuine relationships and build community. Some gatherings are structured, like community lunches or holiday hunts, while others are casual and drop-in. It’s this thoughtful, member-focused approach that makes The Root feel more like a home base than an office.
The heart of the space is the coffee bar and kitchen. The Root partners with local favorite Onyx Coffee Lab to offer complimentary drip coffee, cold brew, and tea. For those wanting something a little extra, the in-house café offers premium espresso drinks from iced lattes (a crowd favorite) to matcha and chai, plus freshly baked cookies from The Baker’s House. The kitchen also serves as a gathering space, whether during member events or impromptu midday snack breaks.
“People love the vibe,” says Community Manager Kelsey Ryder. “It's like working from home with the energy and support of a real community.” And take it from us, the Fayetteville City Lifestyle team, calls The Root home, too. We love being part of such a dynamic, inspiring space that genuinely makes work more enjoyable!
Conveniently located in Fayetteville’s booming uptown business district, The Root is perfectly positioned for those who want flexibility, focus, and a sense of belonging. Book a tour at therootcoworking.com or swing by. You’ll feel right at home the moment you step inside!
