A guide to New York City specialty coffee & cafe culture.
Weekly meetups for cafe and coffee enthusiasts + event listings
New York City specialty coffee & cafe culture guide.
Unpage, a Korea-based, self-described coffee curation showroom, will be in New York City for four days at KOOM Haus, a week-long Korean culture event taking place at 23Iron, a Flatiron event space. They'll be serving filter coffee and milk drinks created with single origins and blends from the five top Korean roasters (according to them).
This is the 27th coffee crawl in this series. We will be stopping for approximately an hour each at the the first two shops, Ocean Hill's Weis and the Tomodachi Coffee popup in South Williamsburg, before heading to home base, Principles GI Coffee House in Gowanus, Brooklyn. It's a safe, relaxed social ride. Many people use Citibike.
Bushwick's Secret Coffee is hosting self-described ultra light roaster, London's Killbean for a Saturday bar takeover with a crazy lineup of coffees (I assume all pourovers). The offerings are almost entirely different from those at Friday's Three Legged Cat takeover and include an ALO Bombe zero fermentation washed (I had this coffee from Daturra, and it was phenomenal).
Brooklyn-based nano-roaster Anthro (Jake Cho) has done a bunch of events lately and is wrapping up the month with a slow bar takeover at East Williamsburg multi-roaster cafe Three Legged Cat. That's all the details I have at the moment.
Pasadena's Tomodachi is popping up at an event space in South Williamsburg (222 Roebling) for an all-day event serving three single origin pourovers and specialty drinks. There are also three separate cuppings that must be signed up for in advance.
Vintage glassware shop and weekend cafe Table Service opens this weekend in Ridgewood serving nano-roaster Realm along with pastries by micro-baker Dear Ellen.
