"Little Skips, a small chain of coffee shops in Brooklyn, is closing its last location. “The past few years in business & life have been the most challenging I’ve ever experienced,” owner Linda Thach shared on Instagram. “i must bow out of it now with whatever grace I have left.” Thach opened her first coffee shop in Bushwick in 2008. She opened five more, but things took a turn in recent years: The original shop shuttered in 2019 due to a rent increase, and an outpost in Prospect Lefferts Gardens followed last month. The last Little Skips, at 1643 Broadway and Hudson Boulevard, in Bushwick, closes on September 17." - Luke Fortney
