Manchester’s coffee scene is about to get a jolt of Brooklyn flavour as Blank Street, the popular coffee chain born in the heart of New York, is officially opening its doors in the city on Wednesday, December 13th.
The brand, which has already taken London by storm, is bringing its speciality-grade coffee and unique winter menu to Piccadilly Gardens.
A Ritual Revolution: From Brooklyn to Manchester
Blank Street, founded in August 2020 with a humble coffee cart in a Brooklyn diner garden, is on a mission to redefine the coffee shop experience.
The brand is known for serving a clean, natural, and high-quality menu at an affordable price.
With a commitment to customer experience, Blank Street invests time in perfecting every detail, making each visit a ritual that sets the tone for the day.
The brand’s journey began with a simple operation and a small footprint, allowing them to cut costs that didn’t enhance the customer or barista experience.
This strategy enabled Blank Street to source top-of-the-range specialty-grade coffees from around the world, in partnership with Origin Coffee Roasters.
Additionally, they prioritise serving fresh, locally sourced food and paying their baristas above-market wages.
Since the launch of their first coffee cart in Brooklyn, Blank Street has expanded its footprint, reaching locations in London, New York, Boston, and DC. Each new store aims to enhance the daily ritual of coffee enjoyment, making it a little bit better for customers.
Sipping Success: TikTok Virality and Celebrity Visits
Blank Street’s success can be measured not just in its growth but also in its presence on social media.
The brand’s TikTok-viral drinks, including the popular Iced Blueberry Matcha, have garnered attention and created a buzz around their innovative menu.
Celebrities have also become regular visitors, adding a touch of glamour to the Blank Street experience.
Manchester, Get Ready for the Buzz
As Blank Street opens its doors in Manchester, locals can expect more than just exceptional coffee.
To celebrate the launch, Blank Street is offering an exclusive in-store buy one, get one free deal from December 15th to 17th.
