Which side of Washington? The 'Crown Heights' or 'Prospect Heights' side?

srsly. I was hoping Tom's would be open to day, but unfortunately it's sunday. this joint could use an egg sandy.

This is the one on the corner that we talked about previously? Either way, they snuck in overnight!

alafairnadia

yep! stealth coffee shop opening! teh awesome!

So the one from the other thread now officially belongs on Underhill. :razz:

Please don't tell me this is an April Fools joke.

Just got back after visiting the wife at the store - stopped off to check out the place - nice! Had a pretty damn good latte. I still think that Gorilla is better, but this is a great addition to the block!

alafairnadia

gorilla is better, but the wifi signal at that place was way better.

Great, just what I want - the place to be overrun with laptop-toting hipsters.

alafairnadia

at least they won't have strollers, too.

er. april fools? sorry dudes. feel free to come by my place for pg tips and wifi.

cool the kid

Wow, my roommate just stopped by there today. Kinda eerie to be reading about it online.

I like the fact that Cafe Shane prohibits laptop usage during the weekends...


Yay for new coffee shops. Maybe I'll swing by today, then again, I have half a bag of Porto Rico's finest blend still in stock.

whyfi

Maybe it's time to edit the thread name, so as to not get people confused...

Please don't go out of your way - there is no coffee shop! April Fool's Day gone wild!

carnivore

I'd like to point out for the record that I was fooled for all of 2 minutes (see above). 8)

whyfi

I'm pretty sure that you posted closer to the beginning of 1:56 and the tail-end of 1:58 - you were much closer to 4 minutes than you'd like to admit.

alafairnadia

sorry all. there was a very ... interesting conversation at sepia on saturday about what posts would work for april fools ...

apollonia666

Well, I'm glad I looked here this morning to see that it was a joke. I'm not glad I got up 20 minutes earlier than usual in order to go get a cup on the way to work BEFORE looking here this morning to see that it was a joke. :x

bigguy

Well I for one would never encourage or participate in anything so sordid as this, and.......oh yea. Sepia.

isa

Well, that sucked. I just spend my entire morning there drinking coffee and typing on my computer. I thought it looked like a bodega but figured it was just made up to look like that for irony. Boy is my face red.

bigguy

Those bagels you ate? Maria cookies.

pensodyssey

Wait. This thread is a joke? But, I swear, I just bought something from there... they said it was "green tea"...



Oh god...

brooklynleather

AWWW OH NO!!
