Domestic queen and empire builder Martha Stewart is set to open her first café at her headquarters in Chelsea. There, the coffee and pastry shop will join the homemaker-turned-TV-toque's magazine, cooking gadget and crafting supply brands.
It's the first of Stewart’s brick-and-mortar food ventures and, while there is no slated opening date or menu as of yet, expect a gourmet coffee bar that looks fresh out of a Martha Stewart Living spread—or even her own home—with tiny white espresso cups, pristine pastries and a glass display filled with delicate macarons. Starrett-Lehigh Building, 601 W 26th St between Eleventh and Twelfth Aves
