Brooklyn Roasting Company opens a cafe inside the Strand

On Saturday, the Strand Bookstore celebrated its 95th year in business ... and on this day, the Strand's flagship location near Union Square officially debuted a cafe on the ground floor with coffee drinks and pastries via Brooklyn Roasting Company. (The outpost also sells tins of a Strand blend of coffee.)

"Bringing coffee to our customers has been a long-time dream for the Strand," CCO Laura Ravo said in a press release about the opening. 

The Strand, 828 Broadway at 12th Street, is open daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
