In 1970, an Italian immigrant by the name of Rocco Furfaro purchased a coffee machine, a special satellite and a pool table for his new business, Café Olimpico — or Open Da Night, as it is known by its regulars.
Originally a place where Rocco and his friends could watch Italian football, play pool and a card game - it soon became a gathering place for the whole neighborhood—a place where you could enjoy a traditional Italian espresso and find respite from whatever was happening in the outside world.
