Cafe DuCharme opened earlier this week on President near the corner of 5th Avenue. The small cafe, which gets its handle from the last name of its Swiss owner, is open from 7 to 7, and in addition to fair trade drip ($1.25/cup) has a variety of sandwiches (a prosciutto combo, eg, for $8.75) and breakfast fare. The shop’s proprietor previously had a coffee shop in Old San Juan.

Clover is now own by Starbucks – and I believe only Starbucks will be getting them from now on…even I admit that sounds like the Borg or something – really crappy.

No Clover machine at this joint?

Well, that explains their demise, now doesn’t it.
For all the carping about closing times, how come nobody has given this place kudos for actually being open in the morning – in stark opposition to the previous tenants, the utterly insane Scandinavian Grace Kafe (a coffee shop that didn’t open until 11am) !!!!
And please, Butterfly: ‘eco-fascist?’ Get a life…
“DH, that description was worthy of a Fair Trade PR person. Are you consulting on the side or something? ”
haha – i lurve wikipedia!!
oh ENY hahhaha
1.25 for a cup of coffee is decent, but 9 bux for a sandwich? that’s a lot of money for a sandwich!! and based on the ingredients listed i bet it’s teeny tiny.

social movements and coffee dont go together.. not a fan of foodie and eco-fascist buzzwords.
besides, we all know the best coffee in the world is cafe bustelo. sold in every bodega in nyc. (real bodegas that is)
