“as a non-drinker”
DeLepp, choose your words more carefully, or you’ll be drummed off Brownstoner and disowned by your mother.
I would be shocked if the Gorilla Coffee suit isn’t thrown out on an early motion to dismiss.
Sounds like the gorilla ladies miss the spotlight and ink. Still an awful lot of fuss over coffee, maybe as a non-drinker I’m missing something.
As for the jewel-adorned mural, Josovips said it wasn’t even his idea.
“I paid the guy. I told him I want something nice,” he said. “That’s what the artist put up.”
Remember folks, this is bodega-level concept of what’s nice.
There’s no drama here, only drama queens.
“who would’ve thunk there’s so much drama in the coffee biz”
who would’ve thunk there’s so much drama on a real estate blog
morning, m4l
wonder if their biz got hurt materially or not. who would’ve thunk there’s so much drama in the coffee biz – ie this and the cafe reg siblings
Morning, dave. Crown Heights pawn shop and Gorilla Coffee, I see front page threads here.
The owners of Gorilla Coffee need to learn when to just drop it and get on with their lives and business. This sort of underlying, seething retaliation is not healthy for them as business owners.
If they aren’t mature enough to move on then that was probaly the root of the issues in the first place and will be their downlfall.
