The coffee chain has removed the non-dairy milk upcharge at all locations, making plant-based options more accessible and inclusive for customers.

Gregorys Coffee, the New York City-born specialty coffee chain with 48 locations nationwide, is taking a bold step toward inclusivity and sustainability by removing the upcharge for non-dairy milks. As of November 11, Gregorys customers, affectionately called "gregulars," can now enjoy their favorite coffee beverages with dairy-free options at no extra cost. This change highlights the brand’s commitment to making plant-based choices accessible to all.

A Commitment to Accessibility and Inclusivity

Founder and CEO Gregory Zamfotis, who follows a plant-based lifestyle, understands the importance of providing accessible, high-quality plant-based options. Gregorys Coffee aims to make high-quality, accessible coffee experiences for everyone, whether they prefer dairy or non-dairy milk. With nearly one in three Gregorys customers already choosing non-dairy alternatives, this shift reflects the brand’s dedication to meeting customers’ dietary and ethical preferences.
