About Us

A curated café experience celebrating hip-hop culture and community in the heart of The South Bronx.

Our Story

The Boogie Down Grind started as a joint venture as part of the Birch Coffee family of coffee shops back in 2016.

On January 15th, 2017 — Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday and in honor of his commitment to economic empowerment in our communities — we re-launched as the Boogie Down Grind, celebrating it as 100% locally owned.

Located at 868 Hunts Point Ave in The Bronx, we are a hip-hop themed oasis in the heart of The South Bronx with room for up to 35 people indoors and even more in our award-winning outdoor seating.
