In an exciting development for fans of the iconic television series "Friends", a replica of Central Perk, the fictional café that served as the group's meeting place, has opened in New York.

Peter van Roden, the head of Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences, has confirmed that the New York replica of Central Perk is a part of their global experiences offering. The company that operates the café is associated with Warner Bros., adding an authentic touch to the experience.
The first official branch of the replica of Central Perk was opened in Boston, and the New York version promises to deliver a similar nostalgic atmosphere. However, unlike in the series, a coffee for three dollars won't be available in the New York replica of Central Perk.

The replica café, like its set counterpart, will feature orange sofas, reminding fans of the cozy atmosphere where Ross, Rachel, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe spent countless hours sharing laughter, tears, and coffee.
While unofficial Central Perk cafés exist in Shanghai, the New York replica offers a unique opportunity for fans to step into the world of "Friends" and relive their favourite moments. So, if you're in New York and looking for a dose of nostalgia, head to Times Square and visit the New York replica of Central Perk!
