Matcha London Fog
Curator’s note
Tyler Wells, a Handsome Coffee Roasters co-founder, opened Nice in April 2017 as a 320-square-foot kiosk, a nice little place to get coffee, built on his idea of bringing the thing to people instead of asking them to opt in. Elliott Lau joined that year and later took the shop over, and Chris Owens, who started the roastery with Lau and Doug Meils, puts it in one line: pay producer partners fairly, charge a reasonable price and be nice to people.
The Coffee
A rotating single origin pours on drip, such as Guatemala el Chalun from Edilma Chavez's farm in Huehuetenango. Cold brew comes straight or as a spritz with San Pellegrino blood orange, tea and chai are Rishi, and matcha goes in a latte, a tonic on Fever Tree or the London Fog.

The Vibe
Gensler drew the architecture and AIS Industries built the steel, and Nice stands in the plaza as a bar of black steel and glass panels open to the hedges and trees, a three-group La Marzocco under a row of teal cups, with a wood ledge outside for the black metal chairs. Around it rise the office towers and a brick building with a flag out front.
