Latte & Laundry

Vacationing in New York City is always fun. But sometimes the real-life chores like laundry and groceries can confound even the most seasoned traveler.

The Celsious laundromat in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, is changing all of that. Sisters Corinna and Theresa Williams opened the new laundromat-café combination, It is a warm, friendly, environmentally-aware space where New Yorkers and tourists can relax, enjoy a coffee, and grab some food.

The laundry is customer and community focused, with regular open-to-the-public events held in the bright, airy, well decorated venue. Upstairs, in the mezzanine, the Clean Café offers an enticing café menu. With an outdoor sitting area in the garden, customers can catch some quiet outdoor time while waiting for the rinse cycle to end. The food is prepared by a nutritionist- chef and the coffee is roasted by Caffe Vita, a roaster committed to working with farmers practicing sustainable agriculture. Celsious washers and dryers feature energy-efficient technology.
