Pura Vida Miami, the acclaimed all-day cafe and wellness brand, announced the much-anticipated expansion of its enterprise into New York. This milestone marked Pura Vida Miami’s first domestic venture beyond Florida, introducing the renowned concept to the Big Apple with its 2,500 sq. ft. NoMad location that debuted on Friday, July 19th. This opening signifies the first phase of Pura Vida Miami’s strategic expansion into New York, with the ambition to operate 10+ more outposts by 2026.
