This Place is New Haven's Own 'Central Perk'

If you’re a lifelong fan of the ’90s sitcom Friends, you know that the characters spent most of their time in a trendy little coffee shop in New York City called “Central Perk.” Luckily, there’s a place in New Haven where you can do the same. Koffee?, a cozy coffeehouse in downtown New Haven, has all of the charm of “Central Perk” as well as a quality food and drink menu. It even has games like Cards Against Humanity and a Ouija board in case you actually want to interact with the people you came with and not be glued to your phones. Stop by during the day and cuddle on the couch with a latté and muffin or sit at a counter in the back and get some work done on your laptop. There’s even a “Koffee Kocktails” menu, which is perfect at night when they have local music talent perform, but I wouldn’t expect any ballads to “Smelly Cat.”

Koffee? is located at 104 Audubon Street in New Haven. For more information, visit www.koffeenewhaven.com.
