New York – Coffee with New Friends

Every Friday we meet at 10:30, and we talk about the good and the bad parts of moving to New York and Living in NYC! Friday morning coffee is for anyone and everyone who wants to join with a very simple concept: We're stronger together as a community and meeting people can be relaxed and fun.

In late 2020, after a year of isolation and lockdown, I started a weekly Coffee & Cake with America Josh in New York City. This has grown into a wonderful opportunity to meet dozens of people every week.

These events are a chance to chat, meet some new friends, and find some great coffee in New York. They’re casual, they’re easy to pop in and out of, and there’s always a mix of old and new faces. I’d love to see you there!

You can register on this page to access our exclusive WhatsApp chat group and then just arrive from around 10:30 and say hello.

What's coffee with New Friends?

The concept is simple: Have a delicious coffee and a cake, support a local (awesome) business, and allow people to connect with each other in the most comfortable setting. For those new to the city, it’s a chance to meet some new friends, for the long-timers, it’s a chance to reconnect, and for everyone, it’s a wonderful opportunity to take a moment for yourself on a Friday morning.

We’re better together, we’re stronger as a community, and we have lots more fun with new friends!

Who can come to coffee with new friends?

Everyone! This event isn’t just for new arrivals to America, and is only made richer by having a diversity of people at every catch-up.

Come along alone or bring a friend, everyone is invited!

How can you find us?

You can find me by looking out for the flag on our table which has the America Josh logo (and keep an eye out for me).

When is coffee on Friday morning?

Coffee starts at 10:30 and normally runs through to about 11:30/12. It’s not a formal structure, so it’s best to get there as close to 10:30 as you can.
