Blank Street debuts on the Bowery

Blank Street coffee opened late last week in the Bowery Market.

The kiosk here in the open-air market at Great Jones also offers products from local brands, including King Street Baking Co. and King David Tacos.

This is the latest outpost for the fast-growing NYC brand that launched with a mobile cart in Williamsburg in the summer of 2020. 

Just last week, we reported that a Blank Street location is coming soon to 36 Third Ave. between Ninth Street and 10th Street. That post has more background about the company founded by Vinay Menda and Issam Freiha, who have aggressive plans for 100 locations operational by the end of 2022. 

The company recently secured $25 million in Series A funding to help realize this goal.
