Black Cat LES

Like some real-life version of Central Perk, Black Cat LES is a neighborhood coffee shop filled with worn-in couches, eclectic customers, and a selection of board games. The "public living room" offers an extensive food menu and a nightly program of open mics, comedy, academic lectures, and more. Oh, and free wifi.
