Keep your eye on Center Ground’s page for updates!

Unfortunately, the lightning strike Brooklyn experienced today caused damage to several pieces of equipment in our café, including our beloved espresso machine.

Because of this, we will be closed tomorrow while we continue cleaning up and work on getting everything repaired and back in working order.

We’re so sorry for any inconvenience this may cause and truly appreciate your patience and understanding. We’re incredibly grateful for your support and are working hard to get back to serving your favorite drinks as soon as possible.

Thank you for sticking with us—we can’t wait to welcome you back soon! ❤️☕⚡️
