Cakes and Ale: Danny Meyer Cafe coming to Theatre for a New Audience
Shake Shack Impresario Applying for Liquor License for Shakespeare Playhouse Eatery
Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?
The play’s the thing at Shakespeare’s new theater in Downtown Brooklyn – but a nice nosh and some vino beforehand and an espresso pick-me-up at intermission will enhance the experience.
The Theatre for a New Audience is building a lobby cafe that foodie superstar Danny Meyer’s company will operate. Wednesday night, the restaurateur won initial support from Community Board 2 for its liquor license. Cue Falstaff to hoist a tankard in celebration.
