Sounds interesting.

A little detective work has revealed that this place seems to have registered with DOH using it's Franklin Ave street address, 762 Franklin, and it's name will be:

Nimba

Nimba is open! Opened a couple weeks ago, according to the guy behind the counter. Space looks beautiful, tall ceilings with wooden beams, cool custom-made tables, and big bookshelves and easy chairs.

I had some ice coffee that was OK but not great, curious to try their other offerings. Coffee and snacks. (sweet/savory pastries, donuts, etc.)

I walked by a few days ago on my way to Franklin Park. It looked so cute and cozy! Plus way quieter than the other seating-friendly coffee shops (eg Breuklyn) so probably a good place to study or read. I look forward to checking it out!

Those are doughnuts from Dough, the same kind that the Candy Rush used to stock before it closed.
