We have more details about the incoming coffee-and-matcha shop at 64 Avenue A: It will be called Lucky Cafe.
The owner is East Village resident and artist James Phillips (below). Some readers may recognize Phillips from his skateboard artwork, which he has displayed on the SE corner of Second Avenue at Seventh Street.
Lucky Cafe is aiming for a soft opening in mid-March. The space is coming together with a green, cream and brown palette, and bench seating. Phillips also designed and made the floor tiles.
This will be the latest addition to the block-long Untitled building between Fourth Street and Fifth Street. Other new retail tenants here are Barryville General and B&H Barber Shop.
