Coffee pop-up BRÜ opens permanent home in Charlotte. Where to get a sip
BRÜ, Charlotte’s favorite pop-up coffee cart, is trading in its wheels for a permanent spot in uptown. The coffee experience debuts Tuesday, Nov. 3, at its new home at The Alley at Latta Arcade , founder Kareem Warren shared on Instagram. It marks the brand’s first-ever storefront, taking over the former Knowledge Perk Coffee Company space. The latter also housed meal prep concept Dank Bowls , which closed in October, CharlotteFive reported. “It’s actually insane that I’m even getting on here to say this, but BRÜ’s cart has been stolen,” Warren teased in a video before revealing his mobile business has an address now. The brand’s signature iced oat milk lattes will be on tap. The shop will also offer an expanded menu of traditional coffee and espresso-based drinks.
