Fidel & Co Coffee Roasters East Village
Grab a coffee to keep warm while you head out. Fidel & Co Coffee Roasters East Village opens at 08:00 on weekends, but since this is a sunrise plan on April 15, you will need to check the route for transport to a place that is open earlier or buy coffee beforehand. For a seamless local experience, this step is best done after the moment if relying on opening hours, but to follow the 'moment first' theme, we will skip the coffee stop here and move to the viewing spot immediately, then get coffee after.
