You heard me correct! Pop-up shop Central Perk opens in NYC’s SoHo Wednesday, September 17 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the premiere of Friends – and the brew’s free for a month, courtesy of Warner Bros. and Eight O’Clock Coffee. In addition to contests and giveaways, look for appearances by James Michael Tyler, who played barista Gunther on the long-running series.
What can I say… I’ll be there for you!
Now we’re going to get old school for a minute. Starting with Eight O’Clock coffee — remember them from your childhood? You’re parents probably do. The 150-year old brand is making a comeback and in a big way. For starters they have introduced new packaging, redesigned their website, and launched a variety of new flavors including African Plains, Caramel Macchiato, Dark Chocolate Cherry and Cinnamon Bun.
In celebration of their stylish ‘redress’ of their packaging, Eight O’Clock Coffee debuts the Red Bag Collection,which includes a series of designer inspired red bags that will be auctioned off on eBay. And as part of this new makeover the brand is teaming up with White Collar star Tiffani Thiessen, to debut The Red Bag Collection; with 100% of the proceeds from the auction being donated to Dress for Success®, an organization that supports women getting back into the work place.
