Necessity Coffee

Jon Runion ran the first Necessity out of an alley for two and a half years and moved it four blocks south in January 2026, where the new kitchen turns out a Turkish tartine of egg, butter chili oil and everything seasoning on a rustic loaf, a soyrizo burrito, and a breakfast sandwich on ciabatta with chili aioli. On October 10, 2026 Cha Cha's bagels set up inside from nine to sellout.

Bright, and dressed in the brand's cream-and-coral palette with sage green accents carried right through to the hardware: the La Marzocco on the bar here is white, the one in San Marcos bright pink. The corner at 2nd and F comes with a mighty ficus overhead, which is the one feature no build-out can install.
