The Coffee Shop (or Coffee Shop) was a restaurant and bar located next to Union Square in New York City. The restaurant opened in 1990 and closed in 2018. It served Brazilian food.

History

Site and operating history

Before The Coffee Shop opened, the building was home to a coffee shop and cafe called Chase.[1] The owners of Chase had placed a large neon sign outside the building reading "Coffee Shop" and the new tenant took its name from the sign and left it attached to the building. The tenant of the space occupied by the restaurant directly before it opened was a diner, Nick’s Coffee Shop.[2] The Coffee Shop opened in 1990.[3] Russell Simmons hosted his 1992 birthday at the restaurant.[4] In 1993, the Coffee Shop changed part of its space into a venue for private parties.[5]

The New York City Department of Health ordered the restaurant to close for a period in 2007 after it failed an inspection.[6][7] In 2015, the restaurant's owners opened a taco restaurant, Taco Shop, in the space next to The Coffee Shop.[8]

Closure

In mid-2018, the restaurant's owners announced it would close in October 2018.[9] It is one of several restaurants on Union Square that have closed due to rising rents.[10] The restaurant hosted a final party before its closure.[11] Portions of the space formerly occupied by the restaurant were rented to a Chase Bank branch and a location of the vegan food chain By Chloe.[12][13]

Reputation and staff

The restaurant was known for being popular with celebrities and members of New York's fashion scene.[14][15] Several notable former members of the Coffee Shop's staff include dancer Emery LeCrone,[16] politician Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez,[17][18] and actress Maya Rudolph.[19]

The restaurant served what the New York Times characterized as "vaguely Brazilian food".[20] The New Yorker referred to the menu as "Brazilian-inspired".[21] The restaurant served drinks made with cachaça.[22]

Moore curve

Space filling fractal curve A Moore curve (after E. H. Moore) is a continuous fractal space-filling curve which is a variant of the Hilbert curve. Precisely, it is the loop version of the Hilbert curve, and it may be thought as the union of four copies of the Hilbert curves combined in such a way to make the endpoints coincide. Because the Moore curve is plane-filling, its Hausdorff dimension is 2. The following figure shows the initial stages of the Moore curve: Representation as Lindenmayer...
