"The cafe has been the missing piece in the story of the new Folger experience," the library's chief financial officer, Ruth Taylor Kidd, wrote in a press release. "Since we reopened the building in June, people have congregated in the Great Hall to work or meet with friends."
Quill & Crumb will function as a museum cafe during the library's daytime hours, furnishing visitors with hot cocoa, lavender-blackberry financiers, and salmon gravlax brioche toast after they've looked at the First Folios.
The kitchen at Quill & Crumb is run by Constellation Culinary Group, specialists in museum cafes who also created the dining spaces at Hillwood Estate and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
A floral signature coffee drink, the Ophelia's Bloom, is made with espresso, elderflower-lavender syrup, and pistachio milk.
