East Rock Coffee

You could do the background. Where are we? My name is Dave Oricchio. I'm the owner of East Rock Coffee, formerly Luluz. We took over a little under a year ago. And we re-gid the interior. A lot of it with wood we got from urban miners. We're purposeing some chestnut. We got from a demolition of a house in the neighborhood on St. Ronan Street. And so these were old war jams. I forgot it was that. We flipped over. Totally that. And then built this counter in Lange with copper to match the copper that had been here previously from the other owner. Cool. We're very happy with that. So my question is, why would you want to use salvaged materials instead of just going by a new one? So this place is bad at salvaged for 24 years. And we wanted to both update it and pay homage to its history. And so we thought it was a good mix to add to the place to update and build, but also to use something that had previously had a life in history to it. Cool. Thanks. Yeah, no problem. Oh, by the way, the coffee's great. Not to mention, unfortunately, I see this every time I come in.
