Yi Fang Taiwan Fruit Tea signage arrives on St. Mark's Place

The Yi Fang Taiwan Fruit Tea signage is now up 33 St. Mark's Place.

As previously noted, the chainlet, with an outpost in Flushing, takes over the space from CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice, the Taiwan-based chain that closed in late May after nearly five and a half years in business.

This space here between Second Avenue and Third Avenue was Rockit Scientist Records until the spring of 2012. There was also, for a sec, Iris Cafe.

Rockit Scientist Records to become a bubble tea shop on St. Mark's Place

CoCo Fresh Juice & Tea now open on St. Mark's Place; also, mascot alert

Oh, that CoCo Fresh Juice & Tea opened this week at 33 St. Mark's Place, last home to the short-lived Iris Cafe.

It's a Taiwan-based business with, well, that many stores worldwide (including several in NYC)...



Don't know much about the place... but they do have a photogenic mascot... (hope this thing is St. Mark's proof.)



This space was previously home to Rockit Scientist Records, which closed in the spring of 2012.
