La Colombe taking over the Allegro Coffee Roasters space at Whole Foods Market® Bowery

La Colombe is opening an outpost in the Whole Foods Market® Bowery. 

As Eater reports, this will be the brand's first New York City roastery.
According to a representative for the company, the new roastery will also offer pastries by Clinton Hill’s the Good Batch. Likewise, there will be a new blend made exclusively for this location dubbed the “Bowery Blend” with notes of chocolate, almond butter, and kiwi. The space is slated to open in the fall.

This also marks the ninth NYC location for La Colombe.

And this also means that Allegro Coffee Roasters is officially RIP'd. Allegro "temporarily closed" back in the summer. It debuted in July 2017, taking over the space in the SW corner of Houston at Chrystie, where Whole Foods Beer Store (beer store!) was.

  1. Notes of kiwi? Kiwi has hardly any taste. Maybe the coffee has a slight green tinge?

  2. Too bad the place across the street that had "Bowery style pizza" is gone. Could have had a Bowery Pizza + Coffee special!

    Next up, Bowery Brunch.

  3. hope Colombe will finally post their prices, which they for years refused to do at the Lafayette location for years (and maybe still do?).

    They probably mean to say there's a slight tanginess.

    1. I assumed the kiwi note was an A Flat White, served by New Zealand barista.
