Sunday Social: Coffee, Cake & New Friends

Join us Sunday afternoon for warm conversations, steaming lattes, and the sweet crunch of fresh-baked pastries! Join us for a laid-back afternoon designed to help you meet new people in the most delicious way possible. Whether you’re new to NYC, craving fresh connections, or just want to unwind with friendly faces, this is your invite to relax, sip, and bond over shared laughs (and maybe a slice of cake).
