In 2006, MilkBoy opened its first food and beverage operation, a coffee shop and acoustic music venue on Cricket Avenue in Ardmore, right around the corner from the recording studio.

In his 2013 profile for Philadelphia Weekly, Kyle Cassidy touts the enterprising MilkBoy group as a Philly institution in entertainment and hospitality, writing "what’s most defined their success, especially over the last year, is their willingness to diversify and seek business outside of the obvious realm of straightforward music production." 〔Chenevert, Bill.
