The number of high quality cafes in the Big Apple could easily number in the hundreds, a fact that even as I write this I can\u2019t help but balk at. But there\u2019s a problem: NYC is so big that even the most well-traveled coffee seeker may not have experienced some of the best shops the city has to offer. That\u2019s why <a href=\"https:\/\/counterculturecoffee.com\">Counter Culture<\/a> is hosting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BvevNwtHGot\/\">Pop Culture<\/a>, a brand new pop-up series taking place at their Broome Street Training Center in New York. Starting in April, Counter Culture will turn over the keys to shop to different NYC cafes to bring a world of different coffee services under one roof.<\/p>\n<p>For the inaugural Pop Culture, Counter Culture has teamed up with six different cafes from around New York City, who will each get two consecutive weekends to display their particular brand of coffee service as well as do a few experimental things they may not normally be able to do in their day-to-day cafe life. \u201cNew York has got so many visions for what coffee service can and should look like,\u201d Counter Culture\u2019s Matt Banbury tells Sprudge. \u201c[Pop Culture] gives us the opportunity to showcase what makes our partnership unique with these shops.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shops participating in this series include: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.littlecollinsnyc.com\/\">Little Collins<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/littleskips.nyc\/\">Little Skips<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/southsidecoffeenyc.com\/\">Southside Coffee<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.everymanespresso.com\/\">Everyman Espresso<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chalait.com\/\">Chalait<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.swallowcafe.nyc\/\">Swallow<\/a>. Each will be interpreting their time at the Training Center however they see fit. Little Collins, for instance, will be serving different toasts as well as heralding the oncoming summer months with an affogato made with Counter Culture\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/counterculturecoffee.com\/shop\/coffee\/buziraguhindwa-natural-sundried\">natural processed Buziraguhindwa<\/a> from Kayanza, Burundi. There\u2019s even talk of a bit of a fun educational angle about potato defect in coffee and it may or may not include a side of potato chips. Everyman Espresso, on the other hand, will be turning the Training Center into more of a gallery space. Serving a menu focused on Ethiopian coffee, Everyman has plans of bringing in clothing designers and hosting an event with Sarina Prabasi, author of the soon to be released <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Coffeehouse-Resistance-Brewing-Desperate-Times\/dp\/1732854033\"><em>The Coffee House Resistance: Brewing Hope in Desperate Times<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And speaking of clothing, Counter Culture will be releasing a series of limited edition shirts and merch celebrating Pop Culture, which will only be available for purchase at the NYC Training Center.<\/p>\n<p>Branbury tells Sprudge that if all goes well, he\u2019d like to see Pop Culture travel to other Training Centers around the country, perhaps even bringing non-local Counter Culture accounts to takeover for a weekend. But for now, some really great New York shops and giving a whole new set of New Yorkers a chance to see and taste what they are all about.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on Pop Culture and updates on the different pop-up events, make sure you are following Counter Culture on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/counterculturecoffee\/\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-142032\" src=\"https:\/\/sprudge.com\/file\/2019\/03\/IMG_4642.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1020\" height=\"1564\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em><a class=\"addbackground\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dallas_coffee\">Zac Cadwalader<\/a>\u00a0is the managing editor at Sprudge Media Network and a staff writer based in Dallas.\u00a0<a class=\"addbackground\" href=\"https:\/\/sprudge.com\/author\/zac-cadwalader\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more Zac Cadwalader\u00a0on Sprudge<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>All images via Counter Culture<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Disclosure: Counter Culture is an advertising partner with the Sprudge Media Network<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/sprudge.com\/counter-culture-goes-pop-up-with-new-york-city-cafe-series-142030.html\">Counter Culture Goes Pop-Up With New York City Cafe Series<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/sprudge.com\">Sprudge<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Coffee News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don\u2019t think I\u2019m telling any tales outside of school when I say that New York City has one of the best coffee scenes in America.
