"One neither desires coffee nor a coffeehouse. One desires to talk with others, coffee is but an excuse." A Turkish saying. a.k.a. The New York Turkish, Greek or Armenian Coffee Group A monthly gathering of local friends and members.

Coffee Party USA is a Trans-Partisan Organization Governed by a democratically elected Board of Directors and driven by a grassroots mission to remove money from the democratic process to return our republic back to the governance of the people.

This is inspired by a man who used to show up at a 24/hr diner near me dressed as Edgar Allen Poe at 4am to just read by himself and have some coffee. I started going dressed as Dylan Thomas, and though we didn't interact much, it was nice to set aside some designated "me time" out of the house, and have a familiar face nearby. He's seemed to have stopped going out, but I was hoping to extend the community to others! You can come as a literary person, a philosopher, or other thinker. Please, if …

NEW ADDITION: By popular demand, Long Island City has been added to this group geographically! This is a group for friendly, non-judgmental people who can’t (or don’t want to) plan way in advance. It's a group for people who DO like to meet up last-minute and grab a beer with someone in the neighborhood...or coffee for round two of a long day...or pig out on fatty crap at a bakery… (You don’t have to live in the neighborhood to meet up in the neighborhood.) Meetings can be as short as 30 minutes …

Everyone is born with psychic abilities. However, not everyone finds the medium that allows them to express it. This meet-up is designed to introduce you to different ways to percieve and understand the mind of others as well as your own. Each person has a medium that is right for him or her, in order to express latent psychic abilities. While these mediums are used by others to foretell the future. Our goal is mainly to help you see first what events of your past are influencing the choices yo …

As a young teenager I discovered a hidden talent to read the future through the ancient practice of reading the grounds of Turkish coffee. The stories flowed out of me, and I was able to predict in great detail what would occur over the next several months. Word spread of my talent, and soon I was in high demand. Through the years I have kept up with this tradition of my ancestors and have continued to leave people amazed with the gift. I want now to share with you the mystery of reading the …

This group will meet periodically as interesting events (museum exhibits, literary events, music, film, theater, etc) come up. The idea for this group is that participants will meet before the event, at a nearby cafe or diner, to get to know each other and then attend the event together. Occasionally, we may also go out afterward for coffee or a drink to have fun and discuss our ideas. RSVPs may be limited for some events. There will be a nominal charge (nonrefundable) for each event, primarily …

Welcome! Are you a stay at home mother living in queens or nassau?

There's a growing startup community in the 11222/11211 area. Let's make it better by meeting, sharing, and having coffee together (and happy hours too!). Oh, and The New York Times also called this gathering the "who's who of digital startups."

New York is the place to be, especially these days, if you are involved in the tech industry (bay area? what bay area?). It is also an excellent place to go out and meet people, get inspired, and start something great. Since the East Village is clearly one of the hippest places to live - and lots of techies do - this meet-up group is focused on connecting you with the like minded, away from your cubicle or coffee shop, and have a beer while you are at it. So, if you are excited to change the wor …

Greetings, my name is Keri. I created this group because there doesn't seem to be a group like this one out there. I want there to be a community for black women and white men, and even others to join, hang out, and meet new people. Even if you're just curious about each other's race, all is welcome, and anyone can join.

When you realize you want to spend rest of your life with someone, you want rest of your life  to start soon. But let's face there are times when you enjoy doing things with other couples as well and sometimes that can be difficult. Whether your friends are single, married but can't get out, always working or it seems you can't just settle on a date with others. We have started this group to meet Indian couples in New York and New Jersey to interact and to build great friendships with. The goal …

I am a gay man living in Queens and am 58 years old. I find that most of the gay meet up groups are for younger men. I want to start one for men 50 and up. This is a great time of life -  we have experienced a lot and know that there is a lot more to come. And New York is such a great place to do it all the boroughs have so much to see and experience. It would great  to have a social group, go to a museum, dinner, the movies or have coffee. To meet with other men from different backgrounds and s …

This is a group for moms, with babies, to get together for playdates in our neighborhood. We could go for walks, meet in our homes, go for coffee, have nights out for moms and anything else that sounds fun. We could also do activities, that include dads, on the weekends. I started this group so my little guy can have some playmates and I can have mommy friends who live close by.

We are a group of dedicated road cyclists, with some of us training for organized rides and/or races.

We offer early morning rides in Prospect Park and beyond during the week, as well as longer rides on weekends.
