Overview
Founded in the summer of 2020 Blank Street was born from the idea that great coffee should not come at a premium. Like most of us, Issam and Vinay (our founders) have always loved coffee. But when they became students and friends in NYC, they realized they couldn't afford the best coffee everyday, and the cheaper options weren't nearly as good (a tough pill to swallow). Here's where their challenge was born: how do you offer amazing coffee that's affordable and accessible, without compromising on quality or barista experience? Ice and Vin decided to answer it.
