Gregorys Coffee Expands into Long Island With New Locations

Gregorys Coffee, a specialty coffee brand that originated in New York City, is making strides to strengthen its footprint in Long Island by signing a franchise agreement with Craveworthy Brands. This strategic move will see franchisees Ricky and Nick Singh, who are celebrated for their success with Pop's Pizza NYC, open three new coffee locations in the area.

Founded in 2006, Gregorys has cultivated a loyal customer base, affectionately dubbed “Gregulars,” by consistently delivering high-quality coffee and a welcoming atmosphere. With over 50 locations across the country, the brand maintains its commitment to small-batch roasting from its NYC facility, ensuring that every cup served is rich in flavor and quality. The Singhs plan to infuse the same principles of community engagement and attention to detail that propelled their pizza business into this new venture with Gregorys.

The Singh Brothers' Journey

Ricky and Nick Singh entered the restaurant industry during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic when they opened their first pizza shop. Since then, their business has flourished into three thriving locations in Manhattan, demonstrating their capability in building strong community ties and operational efficiency. The brothers have expressed excitement about the prospect of harnessing their talents in the coffee business and expanding Gregorys' reach. As Ricky Singh noted, "Running our pizzerias taught us that it all comes down to the details and the people. That never changed, no matter how busy we got. We fell for what Gregorys does – good coffee, good food, and a real sense of community."

A Community-Oriented Approach

The Singhs emphasize serving not just great coffee but also nurturing relationships within their neighborhoods. This community-driven ethos aligns seamlessly with Gregorys' mission, which focuses on providing a warm guest experience alongside its high-quality products. Gregg Majewski, Founder and CEO of Craveworthy, highlighted the perfect match between the franchisees' operational know-how and Gregorys’ values: “Ricky and Nick are exactly the kind of franchisees we want to grow with. They know how to run great restaurants, they take care of their guests and they've earned everything they've built.”

Support from Craveworthy Brands

Craveworthy Brands, having taken Gregorys under its wing in 2025, provides significant resources and support for franchisees. From operations to marketing, the shared services platform enables smooth operations, allowing franchise owners to focus on their core business. The Singhs consider this support invaluable, as expressed by Nick Singh: “What drew us in was a brand we already loved and the support behind it – we knew we wouldn't be building this alone.”

Future Expansion Plans

As Gregorys Coffee’s franchise program launches fully in 2026, the brand is actively seeking experienced operators across various regions in the U.S., including the Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, and parts of the West Coast. This intent further signifies the brand's dedication to growth and community engagement, striving to replicate its successful model in new locations.

For anyone looking to enjoy a warm cup of coffee while forging connections within the community, the upcoming Gregorys locations promise to deliver not just excellent coffee but a welcoming space for all.
