Gilmore Girls Revival: 13 NYC Coffee Shops Turn Into Luke's Diner Oct. 5 (LIST)

Don't miss out on your chance to grab a cup of coffee at the iconic Luke's Diner on Wednesday, Oct. 5.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK — If you're eagerly awaiting the "Gilmore Girls" revival coming to Netflix in November, grabbing a cup of coffee at Luke's Diner, Rory and Lorelai's favorite spot, might put your impatience in a brief hiatus. More than 200 pop-up coffee shops inspired by the show's most recognizable set will appear nationwide on Oct. 5, including 13 in New York City.

In the show's initial seven-year run, you'd often find Lorelai and Rory Gilmore talking about their lives, loves and pop culture — in lightning-fast dialogue — while sipping coffee in the window of the corner diner in the small fictional town of Stars Hollow.

The show has become a cult classic, even more so when all seven seasons were made available on Netflix. And on Nov. 25, the streaming service will release four extended episodes where fans hope questions about Rory's career and love-life will finally be answered.
