19TH ST. IN THE HEIGHTS NOT QUITE READY FOR THAT SIXTIES VIBE Contrary to a few emailed and published reports claiming that it opened for business yesterday, the Heights Ashbury Coffee House still needs “a few more weeks” before it’ll be ready, owner Katy Whelan tells Swamplot . . . after an initial “YIKES!” The space at 242 W. 19th St. will be the new home of Staci Davis’s Radical Eats and Deborah Morris’s Juicy in the Sky with Vitamins juice bar. “We promise you we are ALMOST THERE,” writes Whelan. “We will be offering lots of specials for the wait.” [Previously on Swamplot]
Maybe a new Swamplot Awards category this year is in order. For Most Painfully Punny Name I have this place and Jackson’s Watering Hole as early favorites.
looking forward to radical eats!
Did they open a coffee shop just to use that name?
@firehat: don’t forget Dirty Hairy’s Dog Wash on Durham
Cant wait for it to 100% operational. I passed by and it looks great and eye catching.
