This isn't just any coffee shop; it's a recreation of the beloved hangout spot from the hit TV show. Expect the same amazing atmosphere, delicious food, and exceptional coffee.

Key features:

• A replica of the iconic orange couch will be the centerpiece of the cafe.
• The cafe will be designed and managed by the same team behind the successful Boston location, including famed chef Tom Colicchio.
• The shop is slated to open in late fall 2025.

"When we launched the first Central Perk Coffeehouse in Boston, our goal was always to expand to New York City," said CenPer Holdings executive Paul Landino. "A place where fans and friends alike could create their own stories in the city where the series was set."

Prepare for long lines and lots of Instagrammable moments! This is one experience you won't want to miss.
