A local business is celebrating its seventh year being open, but its operations have changed over the past few months. 

The Milk & Pull coffee shop was started by Angela and Joe Austin. The couple has been together for 16 years. 

The pandemic forced them to close in March, although Milk & Pull reopened again in May - taking online orders for the first time. 

The business has grown and includes two locations in Brooklyn and one in Queens over the past seven years. From the beginning, they say they have taken risks to make their dream happen. 

They say they’re open and are welcoming everyone to pick up their caffeine fix.
