A popular Williamsburg coffee shop is opening an East Village outpost. (TradedNY confirmed the new lease.)
Buddies Coffee is coming soon to 226 E. Third St. between Avenue B and Avenue C.
Taylor Nawrocki, a pro skater, and his partner Rachel Nieves opened the Williamsburg shop in December 2020 and became a hit for signature drinks. One is the coquito latte, a family recipe that swaps out rum for espresso.
We've heard good things about Buddies and are looking forward to trying it.
Gaia Italian Cafe was the last tenant at No. 226.
