Openings: El Churro on Houston and Allen

UPDATED: They now close at midnight Monday-Wednesday, 2 a.m. Thursday-Saturday, and 10 p.m. on Sunday!

El Churro has debuted on the SE corner of Houston and Allen (175 E. Houston St. aka 200 Allen St.).

The cafe offers house-made churros, ice cream and several coffee drinks. (You can watch them make the churros through the front window on Houston.)

For now, the hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Management says they will eventually extend their hours until 10 p.m. or midnight on weekdays and 2 a.m. on weekends.

The renovations started on this thin strip of a storefront in early 2022. (Find our other coverage here for more background on previous tenants, etc.)

    What an upgrade from the tagged up disaster this corner had become

    I think this storefront looks really lovely! really hope this manages to stay untagged. There's just so much glass and so much white, I don't have high hopes.

    Their Instagram account is private — have to follow it to see anything. Is that how to get business these days? Wondering if they have that churro ice cream cone.

    Not a fan of the skim milk white. Looks the waiting room of a doctors office. Maybe a much needed walk in mental health care clinic. A funky colorful facade would have been more appropriate. It's going to get lit up soon enough that's for sure.........
