Laughing Man Coffee
Coffee · 1 location · NYC: Tribeca
Hugh Jackman's Tribeca coffee shop looks founder-run, and it still is: co-founder David Steingard runs it day-to-day. The trademark was sold to Keurig in 2014, but in 2021 it passed to a company registered at the café's own address.
The Big Picture
David Steingard, who co-founded Laughing Man in 2011, still runs its one Tribeca café day to day and led its 2024 move into franchising. The trademark, sold to Keurig in 2014, passed in 2021 to a company at the café's address, and Keurig now lists Laughing Man as a licensed brand. The person accountable for the café is still its co-founder.
