Bowery Coffee space for lease; plus The Mobile Spa for East Houston?

Bowery Coffee at 87 E. Houston just west of the Bowery closed for good after the business day back on Jan. 14. Word was that the landlord apparently refused to renew the shop's lease, per BoweryBoogie.

Anyway, a for rent sign is now up on the space. The listing via KVNY doesn't appear to be online just yet.

Meanwhile, next door to the east …



…there's a coming soon sign for The Mobile Spa, which, according to the store's website, is a "unique boutique for mobile phones, gadgets and accessories."



They currently have locations on Bleecker Street and in Nassau County.

[Updated] Bowery Coffee is closing for good after today

A tipster let us know that Bowery Coffee at 87 E. Houston just west of the Bowery closes for good after business today.

We haven't heard any reasons why. Their Instragram account simply notes, "Come say goodbye to your favorite baristas because we'll miss you too!"

Bowery Coffee opened in October 2011.

Several readers have noted that Bowery Coffee opens today at 87 E. Houston just west of the Bowery. (BoweryBoogie noted this last week.) Boogie reports that the decor can be described as "rustic Americana." While there are a few tables, it's more of a to-go place.

Anyway, if you try it, then please let us know what you think. Of the coffee.
