At Caroline we have a kitchen with sink, two electric burners, a coffee machine and a full sized refrigerator. The refrigerator is cleaned out every Saturday unless marked.
We've never explored having food in the space regularly other than leftovers from events or conferences like HeroCamp. I agree with Alex that food around = constant mess. That being said, a culture of cleanliness is extremely important in the kitchen and coworking space. Something that we're grappling with is enforcing that and instilling proactivity on that front.
