Central Perk Coffee Shop Is Real, You Guys

Even those who have achieved unagi (a state of total awareness, according to Ross) may not be prepared to handle the nostalgia-fest that is New York's Central Perk pop-up to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Friends. Yep, you read that right: the fictional coffee shop that set much of the backdrop of the '90s hit sitcom has come to life! For a limited time, NYC-based fans of the show can enjoy a free cup of coffee in the very cafe that their favorite television characters spent 10 glorious years frequenting. Open until Oct. 18, Central Perk not only serves up free joe, but it also offers guests the chance to explore genuine memorabilia from the Friends set, including the characters' costumes and the famous orange sofa. So if you find yourself in NYC during the next two months, be sure to brave the lines at Central Perk and enjoy the limited-time dose of sitcom heaven. If you can't make it to the city for a picture on the Friends sofa, these photos taken inside the cafe will help you live vicariously. Be warned: they might make you want to marathon the entire show!
