Founder Terrie's mother, Polly, kept a home that was a place for gathering around good food, and both cafes carry her name. Polly's opened on Classon Avenue in late September 2022, and a second cafe followed on Rogers Avenue in 2024.
The house blend took nearly three years to refine. A resident La Cabra single origin is served every weekend, La Cabra beans are sold at retail, and the cafe says it is launching its own roasting program. Baked goods arrive each morning from sister bakery Ouma on Flatbush Avenue.
