Warner Bros. has announced the 2023 opening of Central Perk, a Friends-themed cafe inspired by the show’s coffee house. While the cafe location is currently unknown, itâs sure to attract Friends-loving 90s nostalgics from all over.
Like any great TV show, Friends has never lost relevance since it ended in 2004, thanks to its time on Netflix and HBO Max garnering new viewers from the streaming generation. This announcement only confirms its ever-increasing popularity and that Max subscribers will have until 2026 to binge the show a few more times.
We can only imagine what the coffeehouse will look like and whether it will be a recreation of the showâs New York coffee shop that the cast of characters frequented so often. Likely it will satisfy every hardcore fanâs dream to enjoy a cup of coffee and participate in the coffee culture that drove so much of the showâs plot.
