Ludlow Coffee Supply

John Seymour, also the founder of the New York fried chicken and waffles chain Sweet Chick, opened the original Ludlow Coffee Supply in 2016 on Ludlow Street in Manhattan's Lower East Side. This Brickell room, set inside the lobby of a downtown office building, serves as the brand's South Florida flagship, a New York export into a Miami financial district crowd.

Beans are roasted back at the company's Red Hook, Brooklyn facility rather than on site, making Ludlow a specialty cafe brand running a Miami outpost rather than a local roaster. Validated parking and a pet friendly policy round out a counter built as much for a quick coffee run between office meetings as for lingering.
