The Kuppi Coffee Company outpost is now in soft-open mode at 82 St. Mark's Place (aka 131 First Ave.).
As previously noted, this is the first Manhattan location (and second overall) for the shop based in Edgewater, N.J.
This space is much smaller than its N.J. counterpart, situated on the Hudson with outdoor seating and Manhattan views. In 2018, Architectural Digest named Kuppi the "Most Beautiful Coffee Shop" in New Jersey: "White-washed exposed-brick walls and hung flower boxes — brimming with greenery — bring the outdoors in at Kuppi Coffee Company ..."
Kuppi offers a variety of coffee drinks and tea ... and we understand they will eventually provide some cafe-type fare on St. Mark's.
There's a small bench along the wall for indoor seating, though they will be adding more seats in the weeks ahead... as well as increasing the hours of operation. For now, Kuppi is open from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
2 coffee places on same block opening at 8 am... early bird gets deli coffee!
