It is finally here for all the Friends fans: a Central Perk Coffeehouse is coming to fruition. Friends fans will now be able to order the very famous Central Perk Coffeehouse to their house. Central Perk Coffeehouse will feature a line of artisanal coffees made with high-quality premium Arabica beans. This announcement was brought forth the other day when Warner Bros said they would collaborate with industry coffee exports to help bring this creation to life.
Central Perk Coffeehouse will be a modern-day coffeehouse inspired by Central Perk from the hit TV series Friends, opening its first location in 2023. Peter van Roden, SVP, Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment, says Central Perk is more than just a coffeehouse, it was a home away from home for the characters on Friends.
“Working closely with the CenPer Holdings team in creating this fresh yet familiar environment, we’re looking forward to giving fans a Central Perk of their own — coffeehouses that capture the heart of the show while delivering a first-class coffee experience.”
