Coffee with New Friends in New York (NY)

Friday morning coffee 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. Every Friday we meet at 10:30, we talk about the good and the bad parts of moving to New York and Living in NYC!

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 City. 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 don't need to register or notify anyone if you want to come, just arrive from around 10:30 and say hello.

What's coffee and cake with America Josh?

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 those who have been isolated, 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!

How do I find you?

I arrive to coffee a little before 10:30am and am normally sitting in the North East corner outside LPQ. 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 – and possibly my dog, Roo, if it's not too hot).

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.
