If you combined Madrid with South Beach, added a little Brooklyn, some sweetness, and crossed all of that with a surfing bad ass you would get Maria Fuenmayer.
Maria's been a solid smiling part of the Lorimer St. team for 3 years. When she's not making tasty coffee, she's busy riding waves - or teaching someone else to.
She'd probably take the Gold Coast over Brooklyn any day, but lucky for us she's got her good neighborhood friends and loving companion Bruce Wayne keeping her in the 'hood for now.
Meet Bruce Wayne, isn't he cool? He lives with Maria and thinks she's just as awesome as we do.
Maria's a wonderful and inspiring person. If you're a Brooklyn customer then you understand what she's brought to Gimme. We are grateful! Thanks Maria!
