Full reveal at El Churro on Houston and Allen

Workers yesterday removed the plywood from 200 Allen St., that thin strip of a storefront on the SE corner of Houston. 

As we've noted (here and here), a cafe called El Churro (presumably selling churros!) is in the works here...
Still no sign of a website or any social media accounts.

Updated 6 p.m.: The owner tells EVG contributor Stacie Joy that they hope to open at the end of the month. He's brought in churros machines from Spain and plans to offer different flavors (like chocolate), plus soft serve.

Eastanbul Gyro Kebab and Smyrna Bakery closed here last fall. Empire Gyro, with a 24/7 schedule, opened here in February 2019 ... with the conversion to Eastanbul (and Smyrna) in the summer of 2020. The space was previously Sugar Cafe for 10 years. 

And because someone will mention it! Economy Foam (later, & Futon) anchored the corner from 1937 to 2003.

    Good luck, El Churro! (Economy Foam & Futon not yet completely forgotten.)

    Do we know if it's Latin or Spanish owned?
