The soft opening of Double Dutch Espresso on FDB and 118th Street was a big success this weekend. Word of mouth has it that they turned a profit the very first day and that is big news for the local business owners who jointly share two other small coffee shops in Greater Harlem. Official hours now are 7:00AM-7:00PM from Monday - Friday and 8:00AM-7:00PM for the weekend. Everyone should support this small boutique business to ensure more like it survive instead of the chains taking over the avenues these days. Also the free wi-fi actually works at Double Dutch and we never can get a reception at the Starbucks across the street.
Looks good. I just wish coffee/breakfast places opened earlier on weekends as they do elsewhere in the world: 6 or 7 am would be nice for the early birds.
ReplyDeleteYes! finally a local coffee shop that is open early!!!
ReplyDeleteThis place is great! They have tasty baked goods and yummy coffee. Also, they sell their coffee by the pound.
