Signs have been posted for weeks that the 7th Avenue location of Tea Lounge is closing due to a hefty rent increase, but latte sippers got a shock yesterday morning when a new sign went up: Thursday, July 24 was the cafe’s last day of business—not even a ceramic mug was left on the shelves. A rumor circulated that a Vietnamese sandwich shop might be taking root there, though Tea Lounge workers intimated the deal fell through. Anybody know what’ll go in the space next?
