Capa Café now serving inside the International Center of Photography on the Bowery



The Capa Café is now up and running inside the International Center of Photography (ICP), 250 Bowery between Houston and Stanton.

A Café rep sent along details yesterday ... via the EVG inbox...

The International Center of Photography ... is tapping Great Performances (GP), the sustainability oriented New York City food service and events company, to re-invent and operate the ICP Museum’s café. Reimagined and debuting this fall as the Capa Café — a nod to ICP founder and noted photojournalist, Cornell Capa — the 40-seat eatery features a revamped menu, complete with a robust coffee and tea offering as well as seasonally sensitive fare for breakfast, lunch and afternoon snacks, including baked on-site breads and pastries, made-to-order sandwiches, and hot entrées.

The Café will also unveil a new look later this month, per the announcement. The Capa Café is open Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.; Thursday, 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.



The ICP opened here in June 2016. Maman, which ran the first cafe in the space, quietly closed back in March, as BoweryBoogie reported. Another cafe later opened in its place.

  1. Coffee openings and long time (non food) businesses closing that is the city we live in now.

  2. I live for sustainability! mention that word, and I reach for my wallet.

    Wait. I'm a little short of cash, and hungry.

  3. Seasonally-sensitive. That's a new one.
