BORED

Coffee shop and secondhand dealer · 1 location · Brooklyn: Columbia Street Waterfront District

A Columbia Street coffee shop that is also a licensed secondhand dealer: the city permits it to buy or sell used goods, a second business run out of the same address. No investors, no second location, and no publicly named owner.

Founder-run

The Big Picture

Genuinely Independent

BORED is one storefront on Columbia Street, owned by a New York LLC with no outside investor, no parent company, and no second site in any state or city record. As a young single-location shop it has generated almost no public labor or environmental record, so this rating rests on its ownership structure rather than on a vetted conduct history. The business answers to whoever holds that LLC and to no investor.
